Abstract
One embodiment describes a memory readout circuit. The memory readout circuit includes a readout node having a capacitance that is discharged by the memory cell to read out a memory cell by means of a cell current, a level detector that is configured to provide a digital output signal and to switch over the output signal when the potential of the readout node (due to the discharge of the readout node) crosses a switching threshold (depending on the selection of the level and the polarity downward or upward, that is to say the switching threshold is overshot or undershot), and a control circuit that is configured to set the switching threshold and/or the switching speed of the level detector depending on the cell current.
