In this paper, a new embedded QTP bit-cell (Neobit) is presented for one-/multiple-time programming (OTPIMTP) application, which is fabricated by using generic logic process. Without additional processing or extra fabrication cost, this single-poly NVM can be implemented in various CMOS technologies such as logic, mixed-mode, analog, RF, HV and etc. Due to its easy incorporation with any IC design, this single-poly NVM can be comprehensively used for program storage in micro controllers, device identification in IC cards and network lC, code storage in RFlD tag, fuse device in memory redundancy, and RC trimming in analogiRF circuits.
