Reference cell circuit and method of producing a reference current

摘要

The present invention discloses a reference cell circuit which is applied to a non-volatile memory. The reference cell circuit includes a reference cell array, a first current mirror circuit, and a second current mirror circuit. The reference cell array includes at least one row of floating gate transistors. The first current mirror circuit is arranged to generate a mirror current according to a reference current generated by the reference cell array. The second current mirror circuit is arranged to receive the mirror current and generate an adjusted reference current according to the mirror current and a selected one of a plurality of enable signals, wherein the plurality of enable signals correspond to a plurality operations of the non-volatile memory and the adjusted reference current is arranged to determine logical state of a plurality of memory cells of the non-volatile memory.
