Abstract

Embodiments of the disclosure are drawn to apparatuses and methods for storing an enable state of an address. The address may be broadcast from a fuse array to a fuse latch, and may be associated with enable information. The fuse latch may include a plurality of enable latch circuits, each of which may receive the enable information in common, and each of which may store the enable information as an enable bit. Each of the enable latch circuits may provide a respective enable signal based on a state of the stored enable bit. An enable logic circuit may provide an overall enable signal with a state determined by the states of all of the enable signals from the plurality of enable latch circuits.
