Abstract
A memory cell includes a bi-directional resistive memory element, a first transistor, and a capacitive element. The bi-directional resistive memory element has a first terminal directly connected to a first power rail and a second terminal coupled to an internal node. The first transistor has a control electrode coupled to the internal node, a first current electrode coupled to a first bitline, and a second current electrode coupled to one of the first power rail, a second power rail, or a read wordline. The capacitive element includes a first terminal coupled to the internal node and a second terminal coupled to the read wordline.
