摘要:
An integrated circuit includes a plurality of switching devices, wherein each device includes a gate dielectric capable of assuming at least a first and a second polarization state. The integrated circuit further includes an address circuit configured to control bit lines electrically coupled to first load regions of a load path of the switching devices and a word line electrically coupled to gate electrodes of the switching devices. The address circuit is configured to control a write cycle such that a first voltage is induced at the gate dielectrics of selected ones of the switching devices and a second voltage is induced at the gate dielectrics of non-selected ones of the switching devices. The first voltage suffices to switch the gate dielectrics of the selected devices from the first to the second polarization state and the second voltage does not suffice to switch the gate dielectrics of the non-selected devices.
