Abstract: A method of controlling a reference cell in a resistive memory to identify values stored in a plurality of memory cells is provided. The method includes writing a first value to the plurality of memory cells, providing, to the reference cell, monotonically increasing or monotonically decreasing reference currents. The method includes reading the plurality of memory cells as each of the reference currents is provided to the reference cell, and determining a read reference current based on an aggregation of results of the reading.

Abstract: An integrated circuit includes a first conductive pattern in a first conductive layer, a second conductive pattern in a second conductive layer over the first conductive layer, and a via electrically connected with the first conductive pattern and the second conductive pattern to allow a first current flowing from the first conductive pattern to the second conductive pattern and a second current flowing from the second conductive pattern to the first conductive pattern to pass through at different times. The via is placed on the first conductive pattern so that a path of the first current does not overlap with a path of the second current in the first conductive pattern.
