Abstract
The programmed amorphous silicon antifuse reliability is characterized for the first time as a time dependent phenomenon. Previously, the reliability has been characterized as a switch off or threshold behavior. Both the DC and AC read disturb are now shown to have a time dependence. The stress current and ambient temperature acceleration factors are discussed.
