Abstract: This invention provides a temperature sensor circuit and its operation method. The temperature sensor circuit includes a temperature sensor, a temperature comparator, a plurality of temperature sensor enable clocks with different clock cycles and a clock selection circuit. The temperature sensor detects a temperature of an Integrated circuit and sending a signal indicative of the temperature. The temperature comparator executes a comparison between the temperature of the Integrated circuit and a predetermined temperature setting upon receiving the signal indicative of the temperature and sending an output according to the comparison. Upon receiving the output, the clock selection circuit provides one of the temperature sensor enable clocks according to the output to enable the temperature sensor. The temperature detection cycle of the temperature sensor is thus adjustable to save the temperature sensor power.

Abstract: A system includes a fuse pump; a fuse that can be blown by the fuse pump; and a voltage source configured to provide a first voltage only if the fuse pump is enabled to blow the fuse, the fuse pump blowing the fuse when the first voltage serves as a supply voltage of the fuse pump. If the first voltage serves as a supply voltage of the fuse pump, a first consumed time is required to blow the fuse. If a second voltage, provided by the voltage source, were to be served as a supply voltage of the fuse pump, a second consumed time is required to blow the fuse. The first consumed time is less than the second consumed time.
