ABSTRACT:
An integrated circuit memory is provided in which a repair circuit allows a redundant cell line to be substituted for a cell line which has proved defective. In the invention, access is had to the repair circuit by using the properties of the decoder of the memory. An instruction for decomposing a fuse is given, for all the repair circuits of the memory, through a single external terminal conected to a connection which serves all the repair circuits. When the fuse is decomposed, a bistable circuit changes state and switches the cell lines.
