Abstract

A structure and a manufacturing method for an OTP-EPROM in an embedded EEPROM integrated circuit structure. The structure has a substrate that includes a surface region. The structure has a gate dielectric is overlying the surface region. The structure also a first OTP-EPROM gate overlying the gate dielectric layer in a first cell region, and an EEPROM floating gate and a select gate overlying the gate dielectric layer in a second cell region. An insulating layer is overlying the first OTP-EPROM gate, the EEPROM floating gate and the select gate. An OTP-EPROM control gate is overlying the insulating layer and coupled to the first OTP-EPROM gate. An EEPROM control gate is overlying the insulating layer and coupled to the EEPROM floating gate.
