Method and system for split threshold voltage programmable bitcells

Abstract

Methods and systems for split threshold voltage programmable bitcells are disclosed and may include selectively programming bitcells in a memory device by applying a high voltage to a gate terminal of the bitcells, where the programming burns a conductive hole in an oxide layer above a higher threshold voltage layer in a memory device. The bitcells may comprise an oxide layer and a doped channel, which may comprise a plurality of different threshold voltage layers. The plurality of different threshold voltage layers may comprise at least one layer with a higher threshold voltage and at least one layer with a lower threshold voltage. The oxide may comprise a gate oxide. The bitcell may comprise an anti-fuse device. The layer with a higher threshold voltage may be separated from an output terminal of the bitcell by the at least one layer with a lower threshold voltage.
