Abstract
An approach for interleaving memory repair data compression and fuse programming operations in a single fusebay architecture is described. In one embodiment, the single fusebay architecture includes a multiple of pages that are used with a partitioning and interleaving approach to handling memory repair data compression and fuse programming operations. In particular, for each page in the single fusebay architecture, a memory repair data compression operation is performed on memory repair data followed by a fuse programming operation performed on the compressed memory repair data.
