The subject matter of this specification can be embodied in, among other things, a method for manufacturing and a structure of a byte-addressable electrically erasable programmable read-only memory (EEPROM). In a first aspect, a byte-addressable EEPROM integrated circuit includes isolation means, in each of a plurality of memory bytes, for electrically isolating the EEPROM byte select transistor from an EEPROM memory bit disposed closest to the byte select transistor. In one example, the isolation means precludes the need to use a wide STI oxide for isolation, and thereby avoids the process variation of active area of memory bits.
