摘要:
Embodiments of the invention provide a memory device comprising a non-volatile memory element, a read-out circuit for reading out an item of memory information stored in the memory element, a switching unit, by means of which a supply voltage can be applied to the read-out circuit, and a control unit, which has the capability of controlling the switching unit in a manner dependent on the memory information stored in the memory element.
摘要:
A read-out circuit for or in a ROM memory, comprises an input, a comparator circuit, a threshold setting, and a control signal generator for driving the threshold setting generator. A read signal can be coupled into the input. The read signal, depending on the information contained in the read signal, comprises a high signal level relative to a reference potential or a low signal level relative to a reference potential. The comparator circuit compares the read signal with a settable threshold, the threshold setting circuit is designed for setting the threshold of the comparator circuit relative to the high and low signal levels, and the control signal generator generates a control signal similar to the read signal.

A multiple trip point fuse latch device and method is disclosed. Multiple read inputs to a fuse latch enable the altering of the resistive trip point of the fuse latch. A multiple trip point fuse latch may be combined with a slave latch to form a master-slave flip-flop, and multiple master-slave flip-flops may be connected in series to form a shift register. Changing the trip point permits the use of a test procedure that may analyze the margins of a fuse latch during the fuse read operation.
摘要:
An anti-fuse system composed of a multiplicity of anti-fuse circuits (24, 26, 28, N) connected across a voltage source (10) by a pair of conductors (16, 18). Each anti-fuse circuit comprising an anti-fuse (30) connected in a series with a blow or control transistor (36) and a control circuit (44) for monitoring the status of the anti-fuse (30), Control circuit (44) provides an “on” signal to the gate (38) of control transistor (36) only when a_“select_” signal is received at an input (46) of control circuit (44) and if anti-fuse (30) has not been blown. After the anti-fuse (30) is blown, control circuit (44) turns off the control transistor (36) thereby providing a constant power source voltage across each anti-fuse circuit (24, 26, 28, N) regardless of the number of parallel anti-fuses which have been blown.
