Abstract
A design structure for providing optimal fuse programming conditions by which an integrated circuit chip customer may program electronic fuses in the field, i.e., outside of the manufacturing test environment. An optimal fuse programming identifier, which is correlated to optimal fuse programming conditions, may be provided to the customer in readable fashion on the customer's IC chip. Accessing the optimal fuse programming identifier on the customer's IC chip, the customer may apply a fuse programming process in the field according to one or more correlated optimal fuse programming conditions.
