ABSTRACT:
A memory circuit column decoder is provided with an array of fuses that can be selectively blown to indicate a fuse address of a defective column of a memory array to be substituted by a redundant column. The memory circuit column decoder also includes a decoder that receives a mask that selectively masks out certain columns of a group of columns from being written during a block write operation, and the fuse address from the array of fuses. The decoder generates a signal for disabling the redundant column during a block write operation when the mask masks out the defective column.
