Abstract

La présente invention concerne un réseau de mémoires polyvalent et un procédé d'utilisation correspondant. Dans un mode de réalisation préféré, on utilise un réseau de mémoires comprenant un premier ensemble de cellules mémoire fonctionnant comme des cellules mémoire programmables une seule fois et un deuxième ensemble de cellules mémoire fonctionnant comme des cellules mémoire réinscriptibles. Dans un autre mode de réalisation préféré, on utilise un réseau de mémoires comprenant un premier ensemble de cellules mémoire fonctionnant comme des cellules mémoire qui sont programmées avec une polarisation directe et un deuxième ensemble de cellules mémoire fonctionnant comme des cellules mémoire qui sont programmées avec une polarisation inverse.
