Abstract
An E-fuse circuit comprising: a ring address latch, configured to receive a first input address arranged in serial i bits responding to a first clock signal, and to output a second input address arranged in serial j bits responding to a second clock signal; a control signal generating circuit, configured to receive the second input address, and to decode the second input address to generate first control signals with m bits and second control signals with n bits, wherein the first control signals and the second control signals are transmitted in parallel, and m, n are factors of j; and an E-fuse group, comprising j fuses. If any one of the first control signals has a first logic value and any one of the second control signals has the logic value, a corresponding fuse the E-fuse group is burned.
