Abstract: A transistor array arrangement for providing high-density semiconductor logic circuits in double polysilicon technology is described. Semiconductor, for example, FET, logic circuits have four independent but simultaneously accessible FET devices which are formed by intersecting sets of polysilicon gate lines. The four FET devices share a common first diffusion, for example a source, surrounded by four logically independent second diffusions, for example drains. A three-bit decode device is made which includes this array design.

Abstract: A programmable PLA circuit in which an interlaced AND/OR array is provided which has both common input and common output lines. Separate AND and OR functions are generated during two different timing intervals such that both of the logical arrays can physically share input and output circuit elements. A binary adder is described in which pairs of array output lines are applied to the same Exclusive-NOR circuits during the two time intervals to provide the Exclusive-NOR of product terms during the AND array time interval and to provide the Exclusive-NOR of sum of product terms or the sum of the Exclusive-NOR of product terms during the second time interval.

Abstract: This invention provides an improved electrically alterable read only memory system which includes a semiconductor substrate having a diffusion region therein defining one end of a channel region, a control plate, a floating plate separated from the channel region by a thin dielectric layer and disposed between the control plate and the channel region and means for transferring charge to and from the floating plate. A control gate is coupled to the channel region and is located between the diffusion region and the floating plate. The control gate may be connected to a word line and the diffusion region may be connected to a hit/sense line. The channel region is controlled by the word line and the presence or absence of charge on the floating plate. Thus, information may be read from a cell of the memory by detecting the presence or absence of charge stored in the inversion capacitor under the floating plate.

Abstract: This invention provides improved non-volatile semiconductor memories which include a one device dynamic volatile memory circuit having a storage capacitor with a plate and a storage node coupled to a non-volatile device having a floating gate, a control gate and a voltage divider having first and second serially-connected capacitors, with the floating gate being disposed at the common point between the first and second capacitors. The plate of the storage capacitor is connected to a reference voltage source. The control gate is preferably capacitively coupled to the floating gate through the first capacitor which includesa dual charge or electron injector structure. The capacitance of the first capacitor has a value substantially less than that of the second capacitor.
