According to one exemplary embodiment, a programmable ROM array includes at least one bitline situated in a substrate. The programmable ROM array further includes at least one wordline situated over the at least one bitline. The programmable ROM array further includes a memory cell situated at an intersection of the at least one bitline and the at least one wordline, where the memory cell includes a dielectric region situated between the at least one bitline and the at least one wordline. A programming operation causes the memory cell to change from a first logic state to a second logic state by causing the dielectric region to break down. The programming operation causes the memory cell to operate as a diode. A resistance of the memory cell can be measured in a read operation to determine if the memory cell has the first or second logic state.
