Abstract

A circuit for detecting an anti-fuse memory cell state includes a current providing module connected to a first node and used to provide constant current; an anti-fuse memory cell array connected to the first node and including at least one bit line, the at least one bit line is connected to a plurality of anti-fuse memory cells and the first node; and a comparator, a first input end of the comparator is connected to the first node and a second input end of the comparator is connected to a first reference voltage, and used to detect a storage state of an anti-fuse memory cell to be tested in the anti-fuse memory cell array.
