Electronic device with a fuse read mechanism

1. A method of operating an electronic device, comprising:

precharging a fuse read node to an intermediate voltage less than an input voltage, wherein the fuse read node connects a fuse array and a fuse read circuit, the fuse array including a fuse cell configured to store information and the fuse read circuit configured to read the stored information, wherein:

precharging the fuse read node includes receiving the intermediate voltage at an inverter for adjusting a voltage at the fuse read node to the intermediate voltage, wherein the inverter includes an input and an output directly connected to the fuse read node;

connecting the fuse cell to the fuse read node for reading the information; and

determining, with the fuse read circuit, the information from the fuse cell based on changes to the intermediate voltage at the fuse read node.

2. The method of claim 1 , wherein precharging includes charging the fuse read node to the intermediate voltage during an enable duration before reading the information.

3. The method of claim 2 , further comprising adjusting a fuse read voltage at the fuse read node based on a connection between the fuse read node and the fuse cell after precharging the fuse read node to the intermediate voltage.

4. The method of claim 3 , wherein adjusting the fuse read voltage includes reducing the fuse read voltage from the intermediate voltage based on a fuse setting of the fuse cell.

5. The method of claim 3 , wherein adjusting the fuse read voltage includes increasing the fuse read voltage from the intermediate voltage based on a fuse setting of the fuse cell.

6. The method of claim 2 , wherein determining the information includes detecting a fuse read voltage at the fuse read node after an updated duration, wherein the updated duration is less than a reading duration associated with precharging the fuse read node to the input voltage.

7. The method of claim 1 , wherein:

precharging the fuse read node includes precharging the fuse read node to the intermediate voltage closer to a reading threshold than the input voltage, wherein the reading threshold is a trip point of an intermediate inverter configured to invert a voltage state at the fuse read node; and

determining the information includes comparing a voltage at the fuse read node to the reading threshold.

8. The method of claim 1 , wherein:

the fuse array includes one or more sets of anti-fuses located at a specific portion within the electronic device; and

connecting the fuse cell includes connecting an anti-fuse to the fuse read node, wherein the anti-fuse includes a setting circuit configured to provide an electrical open or a first resistance level when it is not programmed and provide an electrical short or a second resistance level that is lower than the first resistance level when it is programmed or in a fuse-blown setting.
