Claim Text:
1. An One-time programmable (OTP) semiconductor memory cell comprising: a layer of a first conductivity type formed in an active area in a region of a second conductivity type, a dielectric layer formed on said layer of the first conductivity type, a gate conductor layer of the second conductivity type formed on said dielectric layer, dielectric spacers formed on the sidewalls of said gate conductor layer, silicide formed on said layer of the first conductivity type and gate conductor layers, and contacts formed to said layer of the first conductivity type to provide access to each bit cell with metal interconnects, wherein said layer of the first conductivity type is the bit line diffusion, metal interconnect connected to said layer of the first conductivity type through a contact is the bit line and said gate conductor layer is the word line.
