A memory core of a resistive type memory device includes at least a first resistive type memory cell coupled to a bit-line, a first resistance to voltage converter and a bit-line sense amplifier. The first resistance to voltage converter is coupled to the bit-line at a first node. The first resistance to voltage converter converts a resistance of the first resistive type memory cell to a corresponding voltage based on a read column selection signal. The bit-line sense amplifier is coupled to the bit-line at the first node and is coupled to a complementary bit-line at a second node. The bit-line sense amplifier senses and amplifies a voltage difference of the bit-line and the complementary bit-line in response to a sensing control signal.
