Abstract

Methods for programming crossbar circuits are provided. The methods include initializing a word line voltage, a bit line voltage, and a select voltage applied to a cross-point device of the crossbar circuit. The methods further include raising the word line voltage without changing the bit line voltage. The bit line voltage may be raised without changing the word line voltage applied to the cross-point device. The word line voltage and the bit line voltage may be alternatively changed until they reach their respective desired values. In some embodiments, the methods further include setting the bit line voltage to a predetermined value and raising the word line voltage without changing the select voltage. The select voltage may then be raised without changing the word line voltage applied to the cross-point device. The word line voltage and the select voltage may be alternatively changed until they reach their respective desired values.
