Patent ID: 7859303

Claim:
A nonvolatile programmable logic circuit comprising: a nonvolatile ferroelectric register for generating a logic control signal depending on a programmed code in a nonvolatile ferroelectric capacitor; and a switch means for selectively connecting an output terminal to a source in response to the logic control signal, wherein the nonvolatile ferroelectric register comprises: a pull-up driving means, connected between output terminals with a latch type, for driving a power voltage; a write enable control means for transmitting data inputted in response to the write enable signal; a storage means for generating the logic control signal in response to the cell plate signal; and a pull-down driving means, connected between the output terminals with a latch type, for driving a ground voltage; a pull-up means for selectively transmitting the power voltage in response to a pull-up enable signal with the pull-up driving means; and a pull-down means for selectively transmitting the ground voltage in response to a pull-down enable signal with the pull-down driving means.
