[0020] It should also be understood that the terms used in this application specification are only for the purpose of describing specific embodiments and are not intended to limit the application. As used in this application specification and the appended claims, unless the context clearly indicates otherwise, the singular forms "a", "an" and "the" are intended to include plural forms.

[0021] It should be further understood that the term “and / or” used in the specification and appended claims refers to any combination and all possible combinations of one or more of the associated listed items, and includes these combinations.

[0022] See also Figure 1 , Figure 1 is a schematic diagram of the structure of the first anti-fuse switch provided in the embodiment of the present application. Figure 1 As shown, the anti-fuse switch 100 includes: a first heating layer 11 , a fuse connection layer 12 and a second heating layer 13 . The fuse connection layer 12 includes a fuse element 121 and a connection element 122 .

[0023] The first heating layer 11 is used to connect to a first electrode of the external heating circuit 300 .

[0024] It should be noted that the external heating circuit 300 is used to provide heating current for the first heating layer 11 , the fuse connection layer 12 , and the second heating layer 13 .

[0025] Exemplarily, the first heating layer 11 and the second heating layer 13 are both made of conductive materials, such as manganese-iron alloy or tungsten-iron alloy, and the melting points of the first heating layer 11 and the second heating layer 13 are both greater than the melting point of the fuse 121, thereby preventing the first heating layer 11 and the second heating layer 13 from being blown before the fuse 121 is blown.

[0026] The first surface S1 of the fuse 121 is connected to the first heating layer 11, the first surface S1 of the fuse 121 is opposite to the second surface S2, the third surface S3 of at least one connecting member 122 is isolated from the third surface S3 of the fuse 121 by a dielectric layer of a preset thickness, and the connecting member 122 is used to connect the first end point D1 of the editable element 200.

[0027] It should be noted that the editable element 200 includes a resistor and a capacitor. Figure 1 As shown, the first terminal D1 and the second terminal D2 of the editable element 200 are used to receive the control signal.

[0028] In some embodiments, the preset thickness T of the dielectric layer is in the range of 1 nm to 1000 nm, so that the fuse 121 can easily break through the dielectric layer after being blown, thereby improving the success rate of connection between the fuse 121 and the connector 122 .

[0029] Exemplarily, the fuse 121 is a sheet-shaped component, the planes where the long side and the wide side of the fuse 121 are located are the first surface S1 and the second surface S2 respectively, and the plane where the high side of the fuse 121 is located is the third surface S3. It should be noted that when other layers or other components are sheet-shaped, the first surface S1, the second surface S2 and the third surface S3 are the same as those of the fuse 121, and are not described in detail here.

[0030] The first surface S1 of the second heating layer 13 is connected to the second surface S2 of the fuse 121. The second heating layer 13 is used to connect the second electrode of the external heating circuit 300 and the second end of the editable element 200 respectively. The heating coefficient of the first heating layer 11 is greater than the heating coefficient of the second heating layer 13.

[0031] By setting the heating coefficient of the first heating layer 11 to be greater than the heating coefficient of the second heating layer 13, the fuse 121 is quickly heated while the first surface S1 and the second surface S2 of the fuse 121 are heated unevenly, and the charge is transferred from the first heating layer 11 to the second heating layer 13 through the fuse 121. This controls the second surface S2 of the fuse 121 to maintain its original shape when the first surface S1 of the fuse 121 begins to melt, and the carriers migrate and accumulate toward the second heating layer 13, thereby controlling the melting stress of the fuse 121 to be released toward the third surface S3 of the fuse 121, so as to prevent the circuit structure facing the second surface S2 of the fuse 121 from being destroyed.

[0032] After the external heating circuit 300 is powered on, the fuse 121 generates a melting stress and breaks through the dielectric layer, thereby forming a connection with the third surface S3 of the connector 122 to short-circuit the editable component 200 .

[0033] Exemplarily, after the external heating circuit 300 is powered on, the heat required for the fuse 121 to melt mainly comes from the first heating element and the second heating element, wherein the heating coefficient of the first heating element must be greater than the heating coefficient of the second heating element. This heating coefficient is the superposition of the heating capacity of the heating layer and the heat dissipation capacity around the connection. After the fuse 121 melts, the fuse 121 is connected to the connector 122, and the connector 122, the fuse 121 and the second heating layer 13 form a short-circuit channel between the first terminal D1 and the second terminal D2 of the editable element 200, so as to short-circuit the editable element 200, thereby rendering the editable element 200 inoperable, and thus completing the adjustment of the chip.

[0034] An embodiment of the present application provides an anti-fuse switch, comprising: a first heating layer, a fuse connection layer, and a second heating layer. The first heating layer is used to connect the first electrode of an external heating circuit. The fuse connection layer includes a fuse and a connector, the first surface of the fuse is connected to the first heating layer, the first surface of the fuse is opposite to the second surface, the third surface of at least one connector is isolated from the third surface of the fuse by a dielectric layer of a preset thickness, and the connector is used to connect the first end point of an editable element. The first surface of the second heating layer is connected to the second surface of the fuse, and the second heating layer is used to connect the second electrode of the external heating circuit and the second end point of the editable element respectively, and the heating coefficient of the first heating layer is greater than the heating coefficient of the second heating layer. After the external heating circuit is powered on, the fuse melts and breaks through the dielectric layer, forming a connection with the third surface of the connector to short-circuit the editable element. Through the above-mentioned anti-fuse switch, by setting the heating coefficient of the first heating layer to be greater than the heating coefficient of the second heating layer, when power is turned on, the heat generated by the first heating layer is greater than the heat generated by the second heating layer, thereby controlling the fuse to start melting from the first surface close to the first heating layer, and then controlling the release of the melting stress toward the third surface of the fuse, which can appropriately guide the direction of the stress generated by the anti-fuse switch when it melts, reduces the stress toward the first surface and the stress toward the second surface of the anti-fuse switch when it melts, and also reduces the impact on the circuit structure facing the second surface of the first heating layer, thereby increasing the available space for the chip layout, and does not require the addition of an additional mask layer, which has the advantage of reducing costs.

[0035] In order to more clearly introduce the technical solution of the present application, the technical solution of the present application will be introduced through specific embodiments below. It should be noted that the specific embodiments are used to expand the technical solution of the present application, but are not intended to limit the present application.

[0036] For example, all embodiments of the present application are implemented using a semiconductor 180nm process, wherein the minimum dielectric layer thickness T is 220nm, and the minimum metal length of the first metal layer 14 is The following specific embodiments all define the value ranges of their parameters based on the process used in the embodiments.

[0037] In some embodiments, see Figure 2 , Figure 2 is a top view schematic diagram of a fuse connection layer provided in an embodiment of the present application. Figure 2 As shown, the connecting member 122 includes an open ring, and the third surface S3 of the two connecting members 122 and the third surface S3 of the fuse 121 are isolated by a dielectric layer.

[0038] By changing the shape of the connecting member 122 and thereby changing the number of the third surfaces S3 of the connecting member 122 , the success rate of connection between the fuse 121 and the connecting member 122 can be increased.

[0039] In some embodiments, Figure 2 As shown, the length L of the first surface S1 of the fuse 121 has a value range of: .

[0040] By setting the length of the first surface S1 of the fuse 121, it is ensured that the fuse 121 has enough molten material to connect with the connector 122, thereby improving the connection stability and thus improving the chip trimming result.

[0041] In some embodiments, see Figure 3 , Figure 3 Schematic diagram of the structure of a fuse provided in an embodiment of the present application. Figure 3 As shown, the shapes of the first surface S1 of the fuse 121 include: rectangle, cross and black mouth. It should be noted that polygons based on the above shapes are within the protection scope of this application.

[0042] Exemplarily, different shapes have different welding effects. In addition to the above shapes, all existing shapes are within the protection scope of this application.

[0043] In some embodiments, see Figure 4 , Figure 4 is a schematic diagram of the structure of a second anti-fuse switch provided in an embodiment of the present application. Figure 4 As shown, the anti-fuse switch 100 further includes: a first metal layer 14 and a second metal layer 15. The first metal layer 14 is used to replace the first heating layer 11 to connect to the first electrode of the external heating circuit 300, and the first metal layer 14 is connected to the first surface S1 of the first heating layer 11. The second metal layer 15 is used to replace the second heating layer 13 to connect to the second electrode of the external heating circuit 300 and the second end of the editable element 200, and the second metal layer 15 is connected to the second surface S2 of the second heating layer 13.

[0044] Exemplarily, since the first heating layer 11 and the second heating layer 13 are small in size and difficult to weld, the first metal layer 14 and the second metal layer 15 are used to increase the operability of welding so as to facilitate connection with the external heating circuit 300 and the editable element 200 .

[0045] It should also be noted that the first metal layer 14 and the second metal layer 15 also have the function of maintaining structural stability to protect the corresponding circuit structure from being damaged during the fusing process.

[0046] At the same time, the first metal layer 14 and the second metal layer 15 also have the effect of heat conduction and heat dissipation.

[0047] In some embodiments, see Figure 5 , Figure 5is a schematic diagram of the structure of the third anti-fuse switch provided in the embodiment of the present application. Figure 5 The view of the anti-fuse switch 100 is a top view from a first surface S1 perpendicular to the first metal layer 14 (the first heating layer 11 and the second heating layer 13 are not shown in the figure).

[0048] The second metal layer 15 is: The first metal layer 14 is a polygonal metal layer in the shape of a “convex” character.

[0049] It should be noted that if Figure 4 The structural diagram of the second anti-fuse switch 100 is shown as follows Figure 5 The structural schematic diagram of the third anti-fuse switch 100 is a cross-sectional schematic diagram along line bb′.

[0050] In some embodiments, an area of ​​the first surface S1 of the first metal layer 14 is smaller than an area of ​​the first surface S1 of the second metal layer 15 .

[0051] By setting the area of ​​the first surface S1 of the first metal layer 14 to be smaller than the area of ​​the first surface S1 of the second metal layer 15, the thermal conductivity of the second metal layer 15 is better than that of the first metal layer 14, so that the heating speed of the first heating layer 11 is faster than that of the second heating layer 13.

[0052] In some embodiments, the first heating layer 11 and the second heating layer 13 are made of the same material, and the contact area between the first heating layer 11 and the fuse 121 is smaller than the contact area between the second heating layer 13 and the fuse 121 .

[0053] Through the above design, the resistance of the first heating layer 11 is greater than the resistance of the second heating layer 13 or the area of ​​the first metal layer 14 is smaller than the area of ​​the second metal layer 15, so that the heating coefficient of the first heating layer 11 is greater than the heating coefficient of the second heating layer 13.

[0054] In some embodiments, the first heating layer 11 and the second heating layer 13 are made of different materials, and the resistance of the first heating layer 11 is greater than the resistance of the second heating layer 13 .

[0055] Through the above design, the resistance of the first heating layer 11 is greater than the resistance of the second heating layer 13 or the area of ​​the first metal layer 14 is smaller than the area of ​​the second metal layer 15, so that the heating coefficient of the first heating layer 11 is greater than the heating coefficient of the second heating layer 13.

[0056] In some embodiments, the number of first heating layers 11 ranges from 1 to 5, and the number of second heating layers 13 ranges from 2 to 10.

[0057] like Figure 4As shown, the number of the first heating layer 11 is 1, and the number of the second heating layers 13 is 2.

[0058] Through the above design, the total resistance of the first heating layer 11 is in the range of 5ohm-10ohm, the total resistance of the second heating layer 13 is in the range of 4ohm-8ohm, and at the same time, the side length L1 of the first metal layer 14 is in the range of: , so that the side length L2 of the second metal layer 15 has a value range of , which is beneficial to quickly conduct the heat on the second heating layer 13 to the second metal layer 15, so that the heating coefficient of the first heating layer 11 is greater than the heating coefficient of the second heating layer 13.

[0059] In some embodiments, the preset thickness of the dielectric layer ranges from 220 nm to 440 nm.

[0060] In some other embodiments, the ratio of the preset thickness of the dielectric layer to the minimum dielectric layer thickness ranges from 1 to 2.

[0061] In this way, it is convenient for the fuse 121 to break through the dielectric layer after melting, thereby improving the success rate of connecting the fuse 121 and the connector 122 .

[0062] In some embodiments, see Figure 6 , Figure 6 is a schematic diagram of the structure of the first trimming circuit provided by the embodiment of the present application.

By turning on the first switch tube QN and the second switch tube QM, a fuse current is provided to the anti-fuse switch 100, and the anti-fuse switch 100 is used to short-circuit the first terminal D1 and the second terminal D2 of the editable element 200.

[0064] In the above external heating circuit 300, the first switch tube QN is a PMOS, and the second switch tube QM is an NMOS. The switch tube is controlled to provide a fusing current, and the value range of the fusing current is: 90mA-100mA, and the fusing time is 1ms-100ms. It should be noted that in some other embodiments, only one of the first switch tube QN and the second switch tube QM is retained to allow the external heating circuit 300 to achieve complete functions.

[0065] In some embodiments, see Figure 7 , Figure 7 is a schematic diagram of the structure of the second trimming circuit provided in the embodiment of the present application. Figure 7 As shown, the trimming circuit 400 includes: a plurality of anti-fuse switches 100 , a plurality of programmable resistors and an external heating circuit 300 .

[0066] In the above-mentioned trimming circuit 400, the anti-fuse switch is controlled by the N-bit Bit signal, including N groups of fuse switches, specifically, N=8, corresponding to the first switch tubes QN1, ..., the first switch tube QN7 and the first switch tube QN8, and the corresponding editable resistors R1, ..., the editable resistor R7 and the editable resistor R8, and also corresponding to the first switch tubes QM1, ..., the first switch tube QM7 and the first switch tube QM8. The above-mentioned trimming circuit 400 performs a fusing action on the anti-fuse switch 100 according to the control of the selection signal (the N-bit Bit signal).

[0067] By using the trimming circuit 400 , the required layout area can be reduced without affecting the operation.
