Semiconductor device having a diode type electrical fuse (e-fuse) cell array

Abstract

A semiconductor device includes a first word line configured to perform a writing operation or a programing operation, a second word line configured to perform a read operation, a first switching device including a first gate electrode and a first node, a second switching device comprising a second gate electrode and a second node, an electrical fuse (e-fuse) disposed between the first node and the second node, and a diode coupled to the first node and the first word line, wherein the first gate electrode and the second gate electrode are coupled to the second word line.

Dependencies are inferred from the claim text.
