A verification circuit for a phase change memory array is provided. A sensing unit senses a sensing voltage from a memory cell of the phase change memory array according to an enable signal. A comparator generates a comparing signal according to the sensing voltage and a reference voltage, so as to indicate whether the memory cell is in a reset state. A control unit generates a control signal according to the enable signal. An operating unit generates a first signal according to the control signal, so as to indicate whether the comparator is active. An adjustment unit provides a writing current to the cell, and increases the writing current according to the control signal until the comparing signal indicates that the memory cell is in a reset state
