Abstract
An integrated circuit including logic MOS transistors, EPROM cells, and high-voltage MOS transistors. Each EPROM cell includes a floating gate formed from a first polysilicon level above a tunnel oxide and a control gate formed from a second polysilicon level. Each logic MOS transistor includes a gate formed from a portion of the second polysilicon level above a very thin oxide. Each high-voltage transistor includes a gate corresponding to a portion of the first polysilicon level above a layer of said tunnel oxide, the gate being covered with a portion of the second polysilicon layer, except at locations where a contact is desired to be made with the gate. The uncovered portion of the first polysilicon layer in the high-voltage MOS transistors is coated with a silicon nitride layer.
