ABSTRACT:
Methods are disclosed to make an anti-fuse PROM which can be embedded into a conventional CMOS process with few additional processing steps and a small additional area for the write circuitry. Nominal, low voltage transistors are used to program the PROM such that these transistor remain functional some time after programming for the purposes of verifying functionality of the memory's programming code. Once the program code has been verified a low cost production version of the part can be instantly made using standard ROM mask programming.
