    摘要: A memory device may include memory cells. The method may include receiving a request of reading a selected data word associated with a selected code word stored with an error correction code, and reading a first code word representing a first version of the selected code word by comparing a state of each selected memory cell with a first reference. The method may include verifying the first code word, setting the selected code word according to the first code word in response to a positive verification, reading at least one second code word representing a second version of the selected code word, verifying the second code word, and setting the selected code word according to the second code word in response to a negative verification of the first code word and to a positive verification of the second code word.

    摘要: A driving stage for a phase change non-volatile memory device may include an output driving unit, which supplies an output driving current during programming of a memory cell, a driving-control unit, which receives an input current and generates a first control signal for controlling supply of the output driving current in such a way that a value thereof has a desired relation with the input current, and a level-shifter element, which carries out a level shift of a voltage of the first control signal for supplying to the output driving unit a second control signal, having a voltage value that is increased with respect to, and is a function of, the first control signal. A calibration unit may carry out an operation of updating of the value of a shift voltage across the level-shifter element, as the value of the input current varies.
