Abstract:
A circuit cell for a memory device or a logic device comprises: (i) first and a second logic gates having respective output nodes; and (ii) first and second memory units, each comprising (a) first and second terminals and (b) a resistive memory element and a bipolar selector connected in series between the first and second terminals, wherein the first terminals of the first and second memory units are connected to the output nodes of the first and second logic gates, respectively, wherein the resistive memory elements are configured to be switchable between first and second resistance states, and wherein in response to a switching current and the bipolar selectors are configured to be conducting in response to an absolute value of a voltage difference across the bipolar selectors exceeding a threshold voltage of the bipolar selectors and non-conducting in response to the absolute value being lower than the threshold.
