description A system and method are disclosed for manufacturing an integrated circuit anti-fuse in conjunction with a tungsten plug process. A tungsten plug is formed in a dielectric layer that overlies a portion of P type silicon and an adjacent portion of N type silicon. The dielectric layer is etched to create a first anti-fuse contact opening down to the underlying P type silicon and a second anti-fuse contact opening down to the underlying N type silicon. A metal layer is deposited over the tungsten plug and over the dielectric layer and etched to form an anti-fuse metal contact in each of two anti-fuse contact openings. A bias voltage is applied to the anti-fuse metal contacts to activate the anti-fuse.
