ABSTRACT:
The present invention provides a programmable logic circuit including a first set of lines coupled to a logic module, a second set of lines, and a plurality of transistors. Each transistor in the array has a first terminal, a second terminal, and a third terminal, wherein the first terminal is coupled to one of the first set of lines and the second terminal is coupled to one of the second set of lines. In accordance with the present invention, an antifuse is coupled between the third terminal of the transistor and a voltage source. By selectively programming antifuses in the array and selectively turning on transistors, complex user functions with a large number of inputs are implemented in one pass.
