  • Patent number: 11348651
    Abstract: Memory cell circuitry is disclosed. The memory cell circuitry includes a first transistor configured to have a threshold voltage of the first transistor modulated by hot carrier injection, a second transistor coupled to the first transistor and configured to have a threshold voltage of the second transistor modulated by hot carrier injection, a word line coupled to a gate of the first transistor and to a gate of the second transistor, a first bit line coupled to the first transistor and a second bit line coupled to the second transistor. In addition, the memory cell circuitry includes a source line coupled to the drain of the first transistor and to the drain of the second transistor, the word line and the source line configured to cause hot carrier injection (HCI) into the first transistor when a first supply voltage is applied to the word line and the source line, and the second bit line is floated and the first bit line is grounded.

  • Patent number: 8411482
    Abstract: A memory cell includes a fuse and at least one transistor. The transistor is used to control the programming or sensing of the fuse. A program voltage is applied to a stack of first and second conductive layers. A first portion of the stack couples the program voltage to a terminal of the transistor in a cell. A second portion of the stack couples the program voltage to a terminal of the transistor in another cell.

  • Publication number: 20060069901
    Abstract: A method and apparatus for an address generation circuit. In one embodiment, the method includes computing a carry-in for at least one group of a predetermined number of bits of a propagate and a generate signal formed from a plurality of logical address components. Once the carry-in is computed, a plurality of conditional sums are generated for a logic 0 carry-in and a logic 1 carry-in. Subsequently, a sum is selected from the plurality of conditional sums to form a first portion of an effective address from the logical address components in a first stage and a second portion of the effective address in a second stage. In one embodiment, a fully dynamic high-performance sparse tree adder circuit that generates one in four carries, is used to form an address generation circuit, in accordance with one embodiment. Other embodiments are described and claimed.
