    摘要: A device includes memory cells, a reference circuit, and a sensing unit. The reference circuit includes a first reference switch, a second reference switch, and reference storage units. The first reference switch is turned on when a reference word line is activated. The second reference switch is turned on when the reference word line is activated. The reference storage units include a first reference storage unit and a second reference storage unit. The first reference storage unit generates a first signal having a first logic state when the first reference switch is turned on. The second reference storage unit generates a second signal having a second logic state when the second reference switch is turned on. The sensing unit determines a logic state of the bit data of one of the memory cells according to the first signal and the second signal.

    摘要: A memory controller includes a voltage driver and a voltage comparator. The voltage driver applies a variable voltage to a selected line of a crossbar array to determine a first measured voltage that drives a first read current through a selected memory cell of the crossbar array. The voltage driver applies the variable voltage to the selected line to determine a second measured voltage that drives a second read current through the selected memory cell. The voltage comparator then determines a voltage difference between the first measured voltage and the second measured voltage and to compare the voltage difference with a reference voltage difference to determine a state of the selected memory cell. The crossbar array comprises a plurality of row lines, a plurality of column lines, and a plurality of memory cells. Each memory cell is coupled between a unique combination of one row line and one column line.
