The anti-fuse includes a semiconductor substrate, an isolation region, a channel diffusion region, a gate oxide layer, and a gate electrode. The semiconductor substrate includes a top surface and a bottom portion, the bottom portion of the semiconductor substrate having a first conductivity type. The isolation region is disposed inward from the top surface of the semiconductor substrate to a first depth. The channel diffusion region is disposed inward from the top surface of the semiconductor substrate to a second depth, the second depth located at a depth where the channel diffusion region meets an upper boundary of the bottom portion of the semiconductor substrate. The channel diffusion region is surrounded by the isolation region, the first depth is a greater distance from the top surface of the semiconductor substrate than the second depth, and the channel diffusion region has a second conductivity type opposite to the first conductivity type. The gate oxide layer is disposed on the channel diffusion region, and the gate electrode is disposed on the gate oxide layer to cover a top surface of the gate oxide layer.

A fuse circuit includes a program unit, a sensing unit and a control unit. The program unit is programmed in response to a program signal, and outputs a program output signal in response to a sensing enable signal. The sensing unit includes a variable resistor unit that has a resistance that varies based on a control signal, and generates a sensing output signal based on the resistance of the variable resistor unit and the program output signal. The control unit generates the control signal having a value changed depending on operation modes, and performs a verification operation with respect to the program unit based on the sensing output signal to generate a verification result. The program unit may be re-programmed based on the verification result.

A memory device has at least one pair of memory cell blocks, a spare row decoder, a data exchange control signal generator and a data exchange unit. When a defective memory cell in a first memory cell block is repaired with a spare memory cell in a second memory cell block that neighbors (or is adjacent) the first memory cell block, the data topology of the memory cell of the first memory cell may be matched to the memory cell of the second memory cell block.
