Abstract: Programmable interposers for connecting integrated circuits, methods for programming programmable interposers, and integrated circuit packaging are provided. The programmable interposers are electrically reconfigurable to allow custom system-in-package (SiP) operation and configuration, field configurability, and functional obfuscation for secure integrated circuits fabricated in non-trusted environments. The programmable interposer includes, in one implementation, an interposer substrate and a programmable metallization cell (PMC) switch. The PMC switch is formed on the interposer substrate and is coupled between a signal input and a signal output. The PMC switch is electrically configurable between a high resistance state and a low resistance state.

Abstract: Memory devices have an array of elements in two or more dimensions. The memory devices use multiple access lines arranged in a grid to access the memory devices. Memory cells are located at intersections of the access lines in the grid. Drivers are used for each access line and configured to transmit a corresponding signal to respective memory cells of the plurality of memory cells via a corresponding access line. The memory devices also include compensation circuitry configured to determine which driving access lines driving a target memory cell of the plurality of memory cells has the most distance between the target memory cell and a respective driver. The plurality of access lines comprise the driving access lines. The compensation circuitry also is configured to output compensation values to adjust the voltages of the driving access lines based on a polarity of the voltage of the longer driving access line.

Abstract: The present disclosure, in some embodiments, relates to an integrated chip. The integrated chip includes a first resistive random access memory (RRAM) element and a second RRAM element over a substrate. A conductive element is arranged below the first RRAM element and the second RRAM element. The conductive element electrically couples the first RRAM element to the second RRAM element. An upper insulating layer continuously extends over the first RRAM element and the second RRAM element. An upper inter-level dielectric (ILD) structure laterally surrounds the first RRAM element and the second RRAM element. The upper insulating layer separates the first RRAM element and the second RRAM element from the upper ILD structure.

Abstract: Disclosed are a switching atomic transistor with a diffusion barrier layer and a method of operating the same. By introducing a diffusion barrier layer in an intermediate layer having a resistance change characteristic, it is possible to minimize variation in the entire number of ions in the intermediate layer involved in operation of the switching atomic transistor or to eliminate the variation to maintain stable operation of the switching atomic transistor. In addition, it is possible to stably implement a multi-level cell of a switching atomic transistor capable of storing more information without increasing the number of memory cells. Also, disclosed are a vertical atomic transistor with a diffusion barrier layer and a method of operating the same. By producing an ion channel layer in a vertical structure, it is possible to significantly increase transistor integration.
