发明名称 Memory cell with proportional current self-reference sensing
摘要 Various embodiments of the present invention are generally directed to a method and apparatus for sensing a programmed state of a memory cell, such as a spin-torque transfer random access memory (STRAM) cell. A first read current is applied to the memory cell to generate a first voltage. A second read current is subsequently applied to the memory cell to generate a second voltage, with the second read current being proportional in magnitude to the first read current. A comparison is made between the first and second voltages to determine the programmed state of the memory cell.
