ABSTRACT:
A read-only memory for storing a plurality of bits of information. The read-only memory includes a plurality of memory cells arranged in an array with each memory cell including a capacitor having either a relatively high capacitance or a relatively low capacitance representing a bit of stored information. The read-only memory further includes a reading means for accessing each memory cell and providing a first or second output responsive to the capacitance level of the memory cell capacitance means.
