Abstract

An electronic circuit including a bipolar switching memory device including first and second electrodes at terminals of which a programming voltage can be applied, the circuit including: a first mechanism applying, to the first electrode, a data signal having, during a time period d, a constant state 0 or 1; a second mechanism applying, to the second electrode, a control signal that alternates, during time period d, between state 1 and state 0, the control signal being same regardless of the state in which the memory device is programmed; a selection device allowing a current to flow into the memory device during a programming time included in time period d; and a change of state of the control signal taking place during the programming time.
