Abstract
A memory device includes at least one die and a heater device. The heater device includes a first switch element electrically connected to a power supply connection and the at least one die, a second switch element electrically connected to the first switch element, and a resistive element electrically connected to the second switch element and a ground connection. A method includes configuring the first switching element of the heater device to electrically connect the second switching element of the heater device to a power supply connection, configuring the second switching element to electrically connect one of a first resistor or a second resistor of the resistive element to the first switching element, and applying a voltage across the first resistor or the second resistor that is electrically connected to the first switching element.
