Abstract
A memory device comprising a plurality of memory cells, a memory cell of the plurality of memory cells comprising a phase change material (PM) region and a select device (SD) region in series with the PM region; a first address line and a second address line coupled to the memory cell; and memory controller circuitry to interface with the first address line and the second address line, the memory controller circuitry to encode a state in the memory cell by applying, through the first address line and second address line, a current spike and a programming pulse to the memory cell to cause the PM region to be placed into an amorphous state and the SD region of the memory cell to be placed into a high threshold voltage state.
