Abstract
The disclosed technology generally relates to a memory device, and more particularly to a ferroelectric memory device and a method of operating the memory device. According to one aspect, a memory device comprises a bit cell. The bit cell comprises a write transistor, a read transistor and a ferroelectric capacitor. A write word line is connected to a gate terminal of the write transistor. A write bit line is connected to a first terminal of the write transistor. A read bit line connected to a terminal of the read transistor. A first control line is connected to a first electrode of the ferroelectric capacitor. A second terminal of the write transistor is connected to the gate terminal of the read transistor, and a second electrode of the ferroelectric capacitor is connected to the second terminal.
