Abstract
In order to program a programmable element, it is proposed in a semiconductor circuit configuration to connect a first and a second connecting terminal of a programmable element to first and/or second potential devices provided in the semiconductor circuit configuration. In this manner, the first and second potentials are intrinsically made available to form a burning voltage for programming the programmable element.
