摘要： Integrated circuits are provided that have sensitive circuitry such as programmable polysilicon fuses. Electrostatic discharge (ESD) protection circuitry is provided that prevents damage or undesired programming of the sensitive circuitry in the presence of an electrostatic discharge event. The electrostatic discharge protection circuitry may have a power ESD device that limits the voltage level across the sensitive circuitry to a maximum voltage and that draws current away from the sensitive circuitry when exposed to ESD signals. The electrostatic discharge protection circuitry may also have an ESD margin circuit that helps to prevent current flow through the sensitive circuitry when the maximum voltage is applied across the sensitive circuitry.

摘要： Integrated circuits with multiport memory elements may be provided. A multiport memory element may include a latching circuit, a first set of address transistors, and a second set of address transistors. The latching circuit may include cross-coupled inverters, each of which includes a pull-up transistor and a pull-down transistor. The first set of address transistors may couple the latching circuit to a write port, whereas the second set of address transistors may couple the latching circuit to a read port. The pull-down transistors and the second set of address transistors may have body bias terminals that are controlled by a control signal. During data loading operations, the control signal may be temporarily elevated to weaken the pull-down transistors and the second set of address transistors to improve the write margin of the multiport memory element.

摘要： Disclosed are apparatus and devices for programming and operating a programmable memory array portion coupled with a leakage reduction circuit. At the leakage reduction circuit, a frame bias signal that indicates a majority state of the memory array portion can be received. During idle states of the programmable memory array portion, at least one shared bit line of the memory array portion can be selectively biased based on the received frame bias signal. In one aspect, a first one of two bit lines is biased to a first state, while the second one of the two bits lines is biased to a second state that is opposite the first state. In a further aspect, the first state is a same state as the majority state of the memory array portion.

摘要： Asymmetric transistors may be formed by creating pocket implants on one source-drain terminal of a transistor and not the other. Asymmetric transistors may also be formed using dual-gate structures having first and second gate conductors of different work functions. Stacked transistors may be formed by stacking two transistors of the same channel type in series. One of the source-drain terminals of each of the two transistors is connected to a common node. The gates of the two transistors are also connected together. The two transistors may have different threshold voltages. The threshold voltage of the transistor that is located higher in the stacked transistor may be provided with a lower threshold voltage than the other transistor in the stacked transistor. Stacked transistors may be used to reduce leakage currents in circuits such as memory cells. Asymmetric transistors may also be used in memory cells to reduce leakage.

摘要： Integrated circuits with memory elements are provided. A memory element may include a storage circuit coupled to data lines through access transistors. Access transistors may be used to read data from and write data into the storage circuit. An access transistor may have asymmetric source-drain resistances. The access transistor may have a first source-drain that is coupled to a data line and a second source-drain that is coupled to the storage circuit. The second source-drain may have a contact resistance that is greater than the contact resistance associated with the first source-drain. Access transistors with asymmetric source-drain resistances may have a first drive strength when passing a low signal and a second drive strength when passing a high signal to the storage circuit. The second drive strength may be less than the first drive strength. Access transistors with asymmetric drive strengths may be used to improve memory read/write performance.
