摘要:A system for determining the logic state of a resistive memory cell element, forexample an MRAM resistive cell element. The system includes a controlled voltagesupply, an electronic charge reservoir, a current source, and a pulse counter. The
controlled voltage supply is connected to the resistive memory cell element to maintaina constant voltage across the resistive element. The charge reservoir is connected to thevoltage supply to provide a current through the resistive element. The current source isconnected to the charge reservoir to repeatedly supply a pulse of current to rechargethe reservoir upon depletion of electronic charge from the reservoir, and the pulsecounter provides a count of the number of pulses supplied by the current source over apredetermined time. The count represents a logic state of the memory cell element.
