Abstract
A non-volatile memory cell and methods for programming, erasing and reading thereof are provided. A non-volatile memory cell includes a substrate having a first conductive type. A first transistor, a second transistor and a select transistor having a second conductive type are disposed in the substrate, wherein a first gate of the first transistor is coupled to a second gate of the second transistor. A source region of the first transistor is coupled to a bit line. A drain region of the second transistor and a gate of the select transistor are coupled to a select gate line. A drain region of the first transistor is coupled to a source region of the select transistor. A drain region of the select transistor is coupled to a select line.
