Abstract
Provided is a programmable circuit. The programmable circuit includes a first path and a second path connected in parallel between a first voltage node and a second voltage node. The first path includes a first programmable element, a first node, a first pull-up transistor, a second node, and a first pull-down transistor connected in series between the first voltage node and the second voltage node. The second path includes a second programmable element, a third node, a second pull-up transistor, a fourth node, and a second pull-down transistor connected in series between the first and second voltage nodes. A gate electrode of the first pull-up transistor, a gate electrode of the first pull-down transistor, and the fourth node are electrically connected to one another. A gate electrode of the second pull-up transistor, a gate electrode of the second pull-down transistor, and the second node are electrically connected to one another.
