The method and system also include applying a disturb magnetic field to the magnetic element(s) and determining a second resistance of the magnetic element(s) while the disturb magnetic field is applied. The method and system further include comparing the first resistance to the second resistance. Consequently, the state(s) of the magnetic element(s) can be determined without the use of a separate reference element.
