Abstract
Two floating gate devices are arranged in a redundant configuration in a non-volatile memory (NVM) of a Radio Frequency Identification (RFID) tag such that stress induced leakage current (SILC) or other failures do not result in a complete loss of memory storage. The redundant NVM may be arranged as a series configuration, a parallel configuration, a single-ended device, a differential device, a simple logic circuit function, and/or a complex logic circuit function.
