According to the present invention, one or more addresses are forced to a logic state to define a smaller, fully functional portion of embedded memory. A first preferred embodiment has a first fuse circuit and a second fuse circuit which control the conduction and the output signal of a transmission gate which passes through an address signal. The output signal of both the first and the second fuse circuits are input signals to logic circuitry which produces a first input signal and a second input signal to the transmission gate. When the first fuse is blown, the address signal is forced to a first logic state and when the second fuse is blown, the address signal is forced to a second logic state. When neither the first fuse nor the second fuse is blown, the address signal is simply passed through the transmission gate. A second preferred embodiment of the present invention has a first fuse circuit, a second fuse circuit, and an inverting stage through which an address signal passes. When the first fuse is blown, the address signal is forced to a first logic state and when the second fuse is blown, the address signal is forced to a second logic state. When neither the first fuse nor the second fuse is blown, the address signal is inverted. <IMAGE> |
