Abstract

A method of generating an IC layout diagram includes intersecting an active region with first and second gate regions to define locations of first and second anti-fuse structures, overlying the first gate region with a first conductive region to define a location of an electrical connection between the first conductive region and first gate region, and overlying the second gate region with a second conductive region to define a location of an electrical connection between the second conductive region and second gate region. The first and second conductive regions are aligned along a direction perpendicular to a direction along which the first and second gate regions extend, and at least one of intersecting the active region with the first gate region, intersecting the active region with the second gate region, overlying the first gate region, or overlying the second gate region is executed by a processor of a computer.
