Abstract

A transistor level 2X2 reading and writing array for non-volatile memory cell has been designed. This circuit is an innovative reading and writing circuit designed specifically for Programmable Metallization Cells (PMC). The write circuitry is designed to provide appropriate positive and negative voltage bias to an individual PMC memory cell in order to program it to high resistance state (write '0') or low resistance state (write '1'). A terminal switching mechanism is constructed using two pairs of complimentary MOS transistors in writing circuit.
