    摘要: Methods and apparatus are provided for recording input data in q-level cells of solid-state memory (2), where q>2. Input data words are encoded as respective codewords, each having a plurality of symbols. The coding scheme is such that each symbol can take one of q values corresponding to respective predetermined levels of the q-level cells, and each of the possible input data words is encoded as a codeword with a unique sequence of relative symbol values. The symbols of each codeword are then recorded in respective cells of the solid-state memory by setting each cell to the level corresponding to the recorded symbol value. Input data is thus effectively encoded in the relative positions of cell levels, providing resistance to certain effects of drift noise.

    摘要: Apparatus and method for measuring the state of a resistive memory cell. A bias voltage controller applies a bias voltage to the cell and controls the level of the bias voltage. A feedback signal generator senses cell current due to the bias voltage and generates a feedback signal (SFB) dependent on the difference between the cell current and a predetermined target current. The bias voltage controller controls the bias voltage level in dependence on the feedback signal (SFB) such that the cell current converges on the target current. An output is provided indicative of the bias voltage level at which the cell current corresponds to the target current, thus providing a voltage-based metric for cell-state.
