Abstract
A memory cell includes a coupling device, a read transistor, a first read selection transistor, a second read selection transistor, an erase device, a program transistor, and a program selection transistor. The coupling device is formed on a first doped region. The erase device is formed on a second doped region. The read transistor, the first read selection transistor, the second read selection transistor, the program transistor, and the program selection transistor are formed on a third doped region. A gate terminal of the coupling device is coupled to a common floating gate. A gate terminal of the erase device is coupled to the floating gate. During a program operation, electrical charges are moved from the common floating gate. During an erase operation, electrical charges are ejected from the common floating gate to the erase device.
