Abstract
A circuit includes an operational amplifier including an inverting input terminal capacitively coupled to each of an OTP cell array and an NVM cell array and first and second output terminals, an ADC coupled to the first and second output terminals, thereby configured to receive a differential output voltage from the operational amplifier, and a comparator coupled to the ADC and configured to output a data bit responsive to a digital output signal received from the ADC. The circuit is configured to cause the operational amplifier to generate the differential output voltage based on each of a current received from an OTP cell of the OTP cell array and a voltage received from an NVM cell of the NVM cell array.
