Systems, methods, and techniques described here provide for a hybrid electrically erasable programmable read-only memory (EEPROM) that functions as both a single polysilicon EEPROM and a double polysilicon EEPROM. The two-in-one hybrid EEPROM can be programmed and/or erased as a single polysilicon EEPROM and/or as a double polysilicon EEPROM. The hybrid EEPROM memory cell includes a programmable capacitor disposed on a substrate. The programmable capacitor includes a floating gate forming a first polysilicon layer, an oxide-nitride-oxide (ONO) layer having disposed over a first surface of the floating gate, and a control gate forming a second polysilicon layer with the control gate formed over a first surface of the ONO layer to form a hybrid EEPROM having a single polysilicon layer and a double polysilicon EEPROM. The single polysilicon EEPROM includes the first polysilicon layer and the double polysilicon EEPROM includes the first and second polysilicon layers.
