A program control circuit for an antifuse-type one time programming memory cell array is provided. When the program action is performed, the program control circuit monitors the program current from the memory cell in real time and increases the program voltage at proper time. When the program control circuit judges that the program current generated by the memory cell is sufficient, the program control circuit confirms that the program action is completed.

Program control circuit for antifuse-type one time programming memory cell array

A sensing apparatus and data sensing method are provided. The sensing apparatus includes an initial circuit, a reference current generator and a sensing circuit. The initial circuit discharges a sensing end to a reference ground during a discharge period, and pre-charges the sensing end to a preset voltage level during a pre-charge period according to an output signal. The reference current generator draws a reference current from the sensing end. The sensing circuit senses a voltage level on the sensing end to generate the output signal. Wherein, the sensing end receives a cell current from a memory cell, and the pre-charge period is after the discharge period.
