摘要: A memory circuit and a method for reading a memory circuit are provided. The memory circuit includes reference memory cells and operation memory cells. The method includes reading a selected reference memory cell at a first time to get a first voltage; reading the selected reference memory cell at a second time after the first time to get a second voltage; adjusting a read voltage of the memory cell to be an adjusted read voltage of the memory cell according to the voltage difference between the first voltage and the second voltage; applying the adjusted read voltage on a selected operation memory cell corresponding to the selected reference memory cell; and applying the adjusted read voltage on other selected operation memory cells in a same row of the memory array corresponding to the selected reference memory cell. The time difference between the first time and the second time is within a range smaller than a predetermined time difference according to characteristics of a corresponding selector in the selected reference memory cell or the selected operation memory cell.

摘要: An operation method for a memory device is provided. The memory device includes a two-terminal selector and a resistance variable storage element coupled to the two-terminal selector. The method includes providing a voltage pulse to the memory device. A voltage applied across the two-terminal selector during a falling part of the voltage pulse falls below a holding voltage of the two-terminal selector. A voltage falling rate of the falling part at which the voltage applied across the two-terminal selector reaches the holding voltage is raised for reducing threshold voltage drift of the two-terminal selector.
