Abstract
A memory device includes a plurality of select lines, a plurality of word lines, an array of memory cells, a bitline, and a resistance device. The array of memory cells includes multiple rows and multiple columns. The bitline is structured to receive a current in a read operation, causing a value stored in a selected memory cell to be readable when a select line and a word line that interest the selected memory cell are selected. The resistance device has a first terminal and a second terminal. The first terminal is coupled to the select lines, and the second terminal is coupled to ground. The resistance device is structured to bias, in the read operation, word lines of unselected memory cells in a column of a selected memory cell to a determined negative voltage.
