ADAPTIVE ALGORITHM FOR ELECTRICAL FUSE PROGRAMMING

This invention describes a means for preventing eFuses from growing back under successive programming pulses after being successfully fused by an earlier set of programming pulses. The solution is achieved through the use of an adaptive programming algorithm for blowing the eFuses. In the adaptive algorithm once a high enough resistance on a blown eFuse has been attained it will not receive additional programming pulses that could cause it to become measurably lower resistance.
