one or more taps partially disposed in each of two adjacent fuse-array elements of the plurality of the fuse-array elements.

9. The device of claim 8 , wherein the height of the fuse line has a same value as a height of the first fuse-array element.

10. The device of claim 9 , wherein the first portion of the active area comprises a first width having a first value at a first location along the height of the first fuse-array element and a second width having a second value at a second location along the height of the first fuse-array element.

11. The device of claim 10 , wherein the first width of the first portion of the active area having the value is less than the second width of the first portion of the active area having the second value.

12. The device of claim 10 , wherein the first location along the height of the first fuse-array element is disposed at an upper region of the first portion of the active area and the second location along the height of the first fuse-array element is disposed at a lower region of the first portion of the active area.

13. The device of claim 8 , comprising a second fuse-array element comprising the second portion of the active area, wherein the second fuse-array element comprises:

a second fuse configured to be activated to indicate a fuse state of the second fuse of two possible fuse states of the second fuse; and

a second access device configured to access the fuse state of the second fuse.

14. The device of claim 13 , wherein the second fuse comprises a second fuse line having less than or equal to 50% of a dimension of the second fuse line disposed over the second portion of the active area.

15. The device of claim 13 , wherein the second portion of the active area comprises a first width having a first value at a first location along a height of the second fuse-array element and a second width at a second location along the height of the second fuse-array element, wherein the second width comprises a second value that is less than the first value.

16. The device of claim 15 , wherein the first location along the height of the second fuse-array element is disposed at a lower region of the second portion of the active area and the second location along the height of the second fuse-array element is disposed at an upper region of the second portion of the active area.

17. A system, comprising:

a fuse-array mat, comprising:

a plurality of fuse-array elements arranged in a first direction and a second direction, wherein the first and the second direction are perpendicular to each other, wherein each fuse-array element of the plurality of fuse-array elements comprises:

a fuse comprising a fuse line having less than or equal to 50% of a dimension of the fuse line disposed over a first portion of an active area of the fuse-array element, wherein the active area of the fuse-array element comprises more than four sides, wherein the dimension of the fuse line is measured along a height of the fuse-array element, wherein the height is in the first direction; and
