Abstract

A semiconductor device comprising a non-volatile memory cell, for storing at least one bit, in a semiconductor substrate (1) having, in the substrate, a source region (6), a drain region (7) and a channel region (10) between the source (6) and drain (7) regions, and having, on top of the substrate, a floating gate (9) separated from the channel region (10) by a floating gate insulating layer, a select gate (11) adjacent to the floating gate and separated from the channel region by a select gate insulating layer (8), and a control gate (5) separated from the floating gate (9) by a control gate insulating layer, the floating gate being a non-conducting charge trapping dielectric layer (9).
