1. An integrated circuit comprising:

  • an anti-fuse having first and second plates separated by a layer of dielectric;

    programming circuitry adapted to couple a first potential to the first plate; and

    a virtual ground coupled to the second plate for providing a second potential to the second plate, such that a differential voltage between the first and second plates is sufficient to create a conductive path through the dielectric.
