Abstract

A programmable device and a method of manufacturing the same are provided. A programmable device comprises a substrate having a source region, a drain region and a diffusion region adjacent to the source region and the drain region; a channel coupling the source region and the drain region; a floating gate formed of a conductive material and positioned on the substrate and corresponding to the channel; and a trench formed in the diffusion region at the substrate, wherein the floating gate extends to the trench, and the conductive material covers a sidewall of the trench.
