Abstract:
A variable resistive memory device includes a memory cell, a first circuit, and a second circuit. The memory cell is connected between a word line and a bit line. The first circuit provides the bit line with a first pulse voltage based on at least one enable signal. The second circuit provides the word line with a second pulse voltage based on the enable signal. The first circuit generates the first pulse voltage increased in steps from an initial voltage level to a target voltage level.
Abstract:
An electronic device includes a semiconductor memory. The semiconductor memory includes a word line, a bit line, and a memory cell coupled to and disposed between the word line and the bit line, the memory cell including a variable resistance layer that remains in an amorphous state regardless of a value of data stored in the memory cell. In a reset operation, the memory cell is programmed to a high-resistance amorphous state by applying, to the memory cell, a sub-threshold voltage that is greater than 0.7 time of a threshold voltage of the memory cell and is smaller than 0.95 time of the threshold voltage.
