  • Methods of redundancy in a floating trap memory element based field programmable gate array
    Patent number: 6970383
    Abstract: A method for providing redundancy in a floating charge trap device based programmable logic device includes the steps of sensing for a predetermined amount of stored charge in a first area of a floating trap devices in a floating trap device pair, and sensing for the predetermined amount of stored charge in a second area of the floating trap devices in the floating trap device pair when the charge in the stored charge in the first area in one of the floating trap devices is below the predetermined amount.
