Abstract

A high-voltage generator is used to program the anti-fuse of the semiconductor chip. A new high-voltage generator consists of PN diodes and new stack type capacitors. An oscillator supply pulses to the high-voltage generator. The pulse period of the oscillator is delayed by controlling gate-voltage of the MOS. The pulse period is about 27ns, therefore the pulse frequency is about 37MHz. The threshold voltage of PN diode is about 0.8V. The capacitance of new stack type capacitor is about 4pF. The output voltage of the new high-voltage generator is about 7.9V and its current capacity is about $488{\mu}$A.
