Abstract
This disclosure provides a circuit that includes a ramp generator to apply a voltage ramp to a resistive memory cell. A sensing circuit can enable the ramp generator and monitor a current output received from the resistive memory cell in response to the applied voltage ramp, wherein the sensing circuit compares the current output to a predetermined current threshold to determine the state of the resistive memory cell.
