  • Electrical component having configurable characteristics that are non-volatile
    Patent number: 7893750
    Abstract: A component with a functionally-configurable circuit arrangement, has a first switch group with a voltage-dependent switching on or off of a data line and at least one second switch group generating two discrete output voltages separated by an increase in voltage and the switch states for the discrete output voltages may be stored in non-volatile memory. The switching on or off of the data line is determined by the switch state of the first switch group and a third switch group (11) is provided to increase the voltage increase between the first switch group (17) and the second switch group (3).
    Type: Grant
