  • Contact layer traces to program programmable ROM
    Patent number: 11676675
    Abstract: A device includes a programmable ROM circuit, an address circuit, and a processor. The programmable ROM circuit includes multiple physically contiguous pairs of bit-cells, each pair of bit-cells includes an active layer trace extending continuously across both of the bit-cells, each pair of bit-cells comprises a shared contact layer point when the pair of bit-cells is programmed to a value of one and no shared contact layer point when the pair of bit-cells is programmed to a value of zero. The address circuit is coupled to the programmable ROM circuit and configured to address only a first bit-cell of each pair of bit-cells. The processor is coupled to the address circuit and the programmable ROM circuit and configured to use the address circuit to read data from one or more pairs of bit-cells of the programmable ROM circuit.
