Provided is an OTP memory cell including a first antifuse unit, a second antifuse unit, a select transistor, and a well region. The first and the second antifuse unit respectively include an antifuse layer and an antifuse gate disposed on a substrate in sequence. The select transistor includes a select gate, a gate dielectric layer, a first doped region, and a second doped region. The select gate is disposed on the substrate. The gate dielectric layer is disposed between the select gate and the substrate. The first and the second doped region are respectively disposed in the substrate at two sides of the select gate, wherein the second doped region is disposed in the substrate at the periphery of the first and the second antifuse unit. The well region is disposed in the substrate below the first and the second antifuse unit and is connected to the second doped region.

Antifuse OTP memory cell with performance improvement prevention and operating method of memory

A one-bit memory cell for a nonvolatile memory includes a bit line and a plurality of serially-connected storage units. The bit line is connected to the serially-connected storage units. Each storage unit includes a first doped region, a second doped region and a third doped region, which are formed in a surface of a substrate. A first gate structure is disposed over a first channel region between the first doped region and the second doped region. The first gate structure is connected to a control signal line. A second gate structure is disposed over a second channel region between the second doped region and the third doped region. The second gate structure is connected to an anti-fuse signal line.
