Abstract: A semiconductor substrate having an upper surface with a plurality of upwardly extending fins. A memory cell formed on a first of the fins and including spaced apart source and drain regions in the first fin, with a channel region extending therebetween along top and side surfaces of the first fin, a floating gate that extends along a first portion of the channel region, a select gate that extends along a second portion of the channel region, a control gate that extends along and is insulated from the floating gate, and an erase gate that extends along and is insulated from the source region. A logic device formed on a second of the fins and including spaced apart logic source and logic drain regions in the second fin, with a logic channel region of the second fin extending therebetween, and a logic gate that extends along the logic channel region.

Abstract: A non-volatile memory cell formed on a semiconductor substrate having an upper surface with an upwardly extending fin with opposing first and second side surfaces. First and second electrodes are in electrical contact with first and second portions of the fin. A channel region of the fin includes portions of the first and second side surfaces that extend between the first and second portions of the fin. A floating gate extends along the first side surface of a first portion of the channel region, where no portion of the floating gate extends along the second side surface. A word line gate extends along the first and second side surfaces of a second portion of the channel region. A control gate is disposed over the floating gate. An erase gate has a first portion disposed laterally adjacent to the floating gate and a second portion disposed vertically over the floating gate.
