Abstract:
Memory devices might include control circuitry that, when checking for a match of a stored digit of data and a received digit of data, might be configured to cause the memory device to apply a first voltage level to a control gate of a first memory cell of a memory cell pair, apply a second voltage level different than the first voltage level to a control gate of a second memory cell of that memory cell pair, determine whether that memory cell pair is deemed to be activated or deactivated in response to applying the first and second voltage levels, and deem a match between the stored digit of data and a received digit of data in response, in part, to whether that memory cell pair is deemed to be deactivated.
