Abstract:
A non-volatile memory device includes a plurality of memory cells arranged in a matrix, a plurality of word lines extended in a row direction, and a plurality of bit lines extended in a column direction. Each of the memory cells is coupled to one of the word lines and one of the bit lines. The memory device further includes a word-line control circuit coupled to and configured to control the word lines, a first bit-line control circuit configured to control the bit lines and sense the memory cells in a digital mode, and a second bit-line control circuit configured to bias the bit lines and sense the memory cells in an analog mode. The first bit-line control circuit is coupled to a first end of each of the bit lines. The second bit-line control circuit is coupled to a second end of each of the bit lines.
