An Antifuse-based Non-Volatile Memory for Advanced Process Nodes and FinFET Technologies

Non-volatile memory (NVM) is a vital component for most ICs used across the electronics industry including those used in mobile, computing, and automotive applications along with the growing range of devices that will comprise the evolving "Internet of Things" (IoT). Antifuse-based one-time-programmable (OTP) memory, in particular, meets many NVM requirements as a replacement for ROM and eFuses, providing code and key storage and for trimming and device configuration.

This presentation will discuss Sidense 1T-OTP technology, its applications and how it fits the requirements for devices manufactured in advanced process nodes. Sidense will also present their 1T-OTP roadmap moving beyond 20nm into FinFET processes.

About Sidense
Sidense Corp. provides very dense, highly reliable and secure non-volatile one-time programmable (OTP) Logic Non-Volatile Memory (LNVM) IP for use in standard-logic CMOS processes. The Company, with over 115 patents granted or pending, licenses OTP memory IP based on its innovative one-transistor 1T-Fuse™ bit cell, which does not require extra masks or process steps to manufacture. Sidense 1T-OTP macros provide a better field-programmable, reliable and cost-effective solution than flash, mask ROM, eFuse and other embedded and off-chip NVM technologies for many code storage, encryption key, analog trimming and device configuration uses.

Over 100 companies, including many of the top fabless semiconductor manufacturers and IDMs, have adopted Sidense 1T-OTP as their NVM solution for more than 300 designs. Customers are realizing outstanding savings in solution cost and power consumption along with better security and reliability for applications ranging from mobile and consumer devices to high-temperature, high-reliability automotive and industrial electronics. The IP is offered at and supported by all top-tier semiconductor foundries and selected IDMs. Sidense is headquartered in Ottawa, Canada with sales offices worldwide.
