Abstract
A method for storing data on nodes in memory cells of a non-volatile memory cell array including steps of setting non-volatile devices of the non-volatile memory cell array to a desired state, biasing pull-up devices and non-volatile devices in a first set of rows of the non-volatile memory cell array to an off state, loading data onto column lines of the non-volatile memory cell array and biasing non-volatile devices in a second set of rows in the memory cells of the non-volatile memory cell array to store data from the column lines on the nodes in the memory cells of the non-volatile memory cell array.
