MEMORY CELL WITH HIGH-K ANTIFUSE FOR REVERSE BIAS PROGRAMMING

摘要

An integrated circuit and associated method of programming are provided. Such integrated circuit includes a memory cell with a diode and an antifuse in communication with the diode. The antifuse is constructed to include a high-K dielectric material with a K greater than 3.9. Further, the memory cell is programmed utilizing a programming pulse that reverse biases the diode thereof.
