Abstract
The present disclosure includes apparatuses and methods for programming memory cells using asymmetric current pulses. An embodiment includes a memory having a plurality of self-selecting memory cells, and circuitry configured to program a self-selecting memory cell of the memory by applying a first current pulse or a second current pulse to the self-selecting memory cell, wherein the first current pulse is applied for a longer amount of time than the second current pulse and the first current pulse has a lower amplitude than the second current pulse.
