Nonvolatile memory device using variable resistive element

摘要

A nonvolatile memory device may include a memory cell array with a plurality of nonvolatile memory cells arranged in an array of rows and columns. Each of a plurality of bit lines may be coupled to nonvolatile memory cells in a respective one of the columns of the array, and each of a plurality of column selection switches may be coupled to a respective one of the bit lines. A column decoder may be coupled to the plurality of column selection switches, and the column decoder may be configured to select a first one of the bit lines using a first column selection signal having a first signal level applied to a first one of the column selection switches. The column decoder may be further configured to select a second one of the bit lines using a second column selection signal having a second signal level applied to a second one of the column selection switches with the second signal level being different than the first signal level.
