A ferroelectric memory device and method for reading such a device utilize an AC excitation on an active bit line to cancel sneak currents during a read operation. A memory device comprises an active ferroelectric cell disposed between an active word line and an active bit line, and a passive ferroelectric cell disposed between a passive word line and the active bit line. Peripheral circuitry is adapted to drive the active word line with active word line biasing, the passive word line with passive word line biasing, and the active bit line with an AC excitation during a read operation.
