A system and method for achieving enhanced e-fuse programming reliability. By providing an e-fuse device with redundantly coded fuse structures each with a differing fuse size dimension, reliable encoding of a fuse with a programmed bit is enhanced. That is, for each e-fuse device, each of the multiple fuse structures and a corresponding programming devices associated with each fuse structure is dimensioned to achieve the coding redundancy such that one fuse structure of the multiple fuse structures provides for a current flow of sufficient current density to ensure programming reliability of the e-fuse device. In one embodiment, each the corresponding programming transistor device is of substantially identical size and, each fuse structure of the multiple fuse structures is of a different size. Alternately, each fuse structure is of substantially identical size and each programming transistor device is of a different size, thereby ensuring reliable coding over a programmed current range.
