This paper presents an overview of Zener zap anti-fuse trim as used to achieve improvedaccuracy in precision integrated circuits. Because this technology spans design and manufacturing,elements of design, layout, processing, and testing are included. The mechanism isdefined and typical applications are discussed. Layout considerations of anti-fuse devices aresummarized and complex trim networks and multiplexed control methods are presented.Both bipolar and CMOS process implementations are considered. The paper also contains abibliography which includes U.S. patents, which make up a large part of the technicaldocumentation of this technology
