Abstract
Magnetic tunnel junction antifuse devices are protected from degradation caused by programming voltage drop across the gates of unselected magnetic tunnel junction antifuses by connecting said magnetic tunnel junction serially with a first field effect transistor and a second field effect transistor, the first field effect transistor having its gate connected to a positive supply voltage while the gate of the second field effect transistor is switchably connected to a programming voltage.
