Abstract:
A memory device that provides individual memory cell read, write and erase. In an array of memory cells arranged in rows and columns, each column of memory cells includes a column bit line, a first column control gate line for even row cells and a second column control gate line for odd row cells. Each row of memory cells includes a row source line. In another embodiment, each column of memory cells includes a column bit line and a column source line. Each row of memory cells includes a row control gate line. In yet another embodiment, each column of memory cells includes a column bit line and a column erase gate line. Each row of memory cells includes a row source line, a row control gate line, and a row select gate line.
