    摘要: Embodiments of the invention provide devices or methods that include a status bit representing an inversion of stored data. New data is written to selected cells, the new data is selectively inverted, and the status bit is selectively toggled, based on a comparison between pre-existing data and new data associated with a write command. A benefit of embodiments of the invention is that fewer memory cells must be activated in many instances (when compared to conventional art approaches). Moreover, embodiments of the invention may also reduce the average amount of activation current required to write to variable resistive memory devices and other memory device types.

    摘要: A method of testing PRAM devices is disclosed. The method simultaneously writes input data to a plurality of memory banks by writing set data to a first group of memory banks and writing reset data to a second group of memory banks, performs a write operation test by comparing data read from the plurality of memory banks with corresponding input data, and determines a fail cell in relation to the test results.
