Abstract: A memory cell array of a multi-time programmable non-volatile memory includes plural memory cells. The memory cell has the structure of 1T1C cell, 2T1C cell or 3T1C cell. Moreover, the floating gate transistors of the memory cells in different rows of the memory cell array are constructed in the same well region. Consequently, the chip size is reduced. Moreover, by providing proper bias voltages to the memory cell array, the program action, the erase action or the read action can be performed normally.
