Abstract
A nonvolatile memory device includes a memory cell array with a matrix of nonvolatile memory cells. The nonvolatile memory cells may store data using variable resistive elements. A plurality of bitlines are coupled to a plurality of nonvolatile memory cell arrays in the memory cell array. A column selection circuit selects among the bitlines in response to a column selection signal. A controller regulates a level of the column selection signal in response to a temperature signal from a temperature sensor. The temperature sensor may be configured to measure temperature outside the nonvolatile memory device to generate the temperature signal.
