Abstract
Integrated circuits with programmable resistive switch elements are provided. A programmable resistive switch element may include two non-volatile resistive elements connected in series and a programming transistor. The programmable resistive switch elements may be configured in a crossbar array and may be interposed within the user data path. Driver circuits may also be included for selectively turning on or turning off the switches by applying positive and optionally negative voltages.
