Structures and methods for in service programmable logic arrays with low tunnel barrier interpoly insulators are provided. The in-service programmable logic array includes a first logic and a second logic plan having a number of logic cells arranged in rows and columns that are interconnected to produce a number of logical outputs such that the in service programmable logic array implements a logical function. The logic cell includes a first source/drain region and a second source/drain region separated by a channel region in a substrate. A floating gate opposing the channel region and is separated therefrom by a gate oxide. A control gate opposes the floating gate. The control gate is separated from the floating gate by a low tunnel barrier intergate insulator. The low tunnel barrier intergate insulator includes a metal oxide insulator selected from the group consisting of PbO, Al<SUB>2</SUB>O<SUB>3</SUB>, Ta<SUB>2</SUB>O<SUB>5</SUB>, TiO<SUB>2</SUB>, ZrO<SUB>2</SUB>, Nb<SUB>2</SUB>O<SUB>5 </SUB>and/or a Perovskite oxide tunnel barrier.
