Assignee: EMEMORY TECHNOLOGY INC.
Field: Computer technology (Electrical engineering)
Classification: CPC G | IPC G

Claim 5:
6. A forming method for a resistive memory device, comprising:
setting a forming voltage provided from a driver for a plurality of first memory cells in the resistive memory device and a plurality of second memory cells in the resistive memory device, wherein a first connection length along a plurality of bit lines and a plurality of source lines between the first memory cells and the driver is longer than a second connection length along the bit lines and the source lines between the second memory cells and the driver;
performing a forming process to the first memory cells according to the forming voltage; and
performing the forming process to the second memory cells according to the forming voltage after the forming process is performed to the first memory cells,
wherein a first value of the forming voltage provided to the first memory cells is less than a second value of the forming voltage provided to the second memory cells,
wherein the forming voltage comprises a bit line voltage and a source line voltage and the driver comprises a first driver and a second driver, wherein the forming method further comprises:
providing, by the first driver, the bit line voltage to the bit lines; and
providing, by the second driver, the source line voltage to the source lines,
wherein a first value of the bit line voltage provided to the first memory cells is less than a second value of the bit line voltage provided to the second memory cells, and a first value of the source line voltage provided to the first memory cells is less than a second value of the source line voltage provided to the second memory cells.
