Abstract
A memory device comprising a memory array, a sensing circuit and a control circuit is provided. The memory array comprises a plurality of memory cells respectively having a first resistance or a second resistance greater than the first resistance. When all memory cells have the first resistance, an equivalent resistance of the memory array is equal to a first equivalent resistance. When all memory cells have the second resistance, the equivalent resistance of the memory array is equal to a second equivalent resistance greater than the first equivalent resistance. The sensing circuit is coupled to the memory array and is configured to sense the equivalent resistance. The control circuit is coupled to the memory array and is configured to adjust the second resistance, so as to make the second equivalent resistance be within a specified magnification range of one of a plurality of sensing levels of the sensing circuit.
