Abstract
A memory device can include a plurality of two terminal conductive bridging random access memory (CBRAM) type memory elements; at least one program transistor configured to enable a program current to flow through at least one memory element in response to the application of a program signal at its control terminal and a program bias voltage to the memory element; and an erase load circuit that includes at least one two-terminal diode-like load element, the erase load circuit configured to enable an erase current to flow through the load element and at least one memory element in a direction opposite to that of the program current.
