    Abstract: An integrated circuit includes a substrate and an interconnect. A substrate zone is delineated by an insulating zone. A polysilicon region extends on the insulating zone and includes a strip part. An isolating region is situated between the substrate and the interconnect and covers the substrate zone and the polysilicon region. A first electrically conductive pad passes through the isolating region and has a first end in electrical contact with both the strip part and the substrate zone. A second end of the electrically conductive pad is in electrical contact with the interconnect. A second electrically conductive pad also passes through the isolating region to make electrical contact with another region. The first and second electrically conductive pads have equal or substantially equal cross sectional sizes, within a tolerance.

    Abstract: A MOS transistor located in and on a semiconductor substrate has a drain region, a source region and a conductive gate region. The conductive gate region includes a first conductive gate region that is insulated from the semiconductor substrate and a second conductive gate region that is insulated from and located above the first conductive gate region. A length of the first conductive gate region, measured in the drain-source direction, is greater than a length of the second conductive gate region, also measured in the drain-source direction. The first conductive gate region protrudes longitudinally in the drain-source direction beyond the second conductive gate region at least on one side of the second conductive gate region so as to extend over at least one of the source and drain regions.

    Abstract: The present disclosure relates to a memory comprising at least one word line comprising a row of split gate memory cells each comprising a selection transistor section comprising a selection gate and a floating-gate transistor section comprising a floating gate and a control gate. According to the present disclosure, the memory comprises a source plane common to the memory cells of the word line, to collect programming currents passing through memory cells during their programming, and the selection transistor sections of the memory cells are connected to the source plane. A programming current control circuit is configured to control the programming current passing through the memory cells by acting on a selection voltage applied to a selection line.
