Abstract

A method of performing a memory cell operation can include maintaining a plate voltage at a first access line of a memory cell during at least a first operation and a second operation of the memory cell. The method can further include charging a second access line to a first voltage greater than zero and greater than a threshold voltage of a selector device of the memory cell during the first operation on the memory cell. The method can further include, subsequent to the first operation, charging the second access line to a second voltage greater than the plate voltage plus the threshold voltage of the selector device to perform the second operation of the memory cell.
