In addition to changing the original memory volatility, the structure of the memory is increased, and the structure is exposed, and the conductive layer of the original memory memory in the memory of the body of the memory is recorded in the process. In the step, the gate is increased, and the gate voltage of the gate is replaced by the electric charge, and the CMOS cost is increased in all the electric crystal structures of the gate of the transistor. The storage power is better than the one. It is used to store the charge voltage, or to store the charge to leave. The erase operation will be stored in non-distributed, making all non-volatile memory voltages. Therefore, in addition to the conventional non-volatile crystal gate layer, an additional double gate (d 〇ub 1 e - 1 ayef ) process is required to deposit thin film deposition, etching and addition, complicated process, and embedded under component yield.

Description of invention (2) The time of the product is more obvious. ^In the EEPROM component erasing method, the stored charge system is transferred from the floating gate to the transistor under the effect of Fowler-Nordheim tunneling (referred to as F_N tunneling). Remove, the voltage goes to 2 2 ^1〇V ' and then because of the single gate ΕΕΜΡ _ memory L fi - floating closed pole 1 capacity substrate, resulting in stored charge can be released in either direction according to electricity; The issue of bribery _ component over-erasing has become more serious.
