Abstract
Disclose is a non-volatile memory (NVM) cell sensing circuit. The sensing circuit may include a sense-side-line conditioning circuit segment adapted to condition a sense-side-line of the NVM cell. Conditioning may include adjusting a charge density within the NVM cell sense-side-line during a first NVM cell current sensing phase. The conditioning circuit segment may also be adapted to maintain an NVM cell current sensing condition during a second NVM cell current sensing phase. Adjusting a charge density within the NVM cell sense-side-line may include inducing current in the sense-side-line in a direction opposite to the sensing current.
