US Patent 7199631 Storing an unchanging binary code in an integrated circuit

The invention concerns a circuit (1) for storing a binary code (B1, B2, Bi-1, Bi, Bn-1, Bn) in an integrated circuit chip, comprising an input terminal (2) applying a signal (E) triggering reading of the code, output terminals (31, 32, 3i-1, 3i, 3n-1, 3n) for delivering said binary code, first electrical paths (P1, P2, Pi, Pn) individually connecting said input terminal to each output terminal, each path inputting a fixed delay in the manufacture of the integrated circuit, and means (4, 51, 52, 5i, 5n) simultaneously integrating the binary states present in output of the electrical paths.
