Abstract
A two transistor programmable logic cell is used in programmable logic devices. The cell has a backgate that holds charge to program one of the two transistors into a logic 1 or a logic 0 state. Programmable logic devices are scalable to fine geometries and high densities and may be programmed to perform multiple logic functions on the same substrate.
