Abstract:
A latch circuit and method includes providing a first tri-gate non-volatile device, providing a second tri-gate non-volatile device, coupling the first tri-gate non-volatile device to the second tri-gate non-volatile device, erasing the first tri-gate non-volatile device, programming the second tri-gate non-volatile device, and latching an output node of the latch device to a logic state determined by respective thresholds of the first and second tri-gate non-volatile devices. Coupling the first tri-gate non-volatile device to the second tri-gate non-volatile device can include direct coupling, or indirect coupling through a cross-coupled circuit.
