Classification: CPC G | IPC G

Claim 18:
19. The method of claim 15, further comprising performing a read operation to determine a conductance state of the non-volatile analog resistive memory cell, wherein performing the read operation comprises:
performing an initialization process which comprises applying an initialization control pulse on the first word line to change a polarization state of the first FeFET device to an initial polarization state, while maintaining the first and second FeFET devices in an off state; and
performing a read process following the initialization process, wherein the read process comprises applying a read pulse on the first word line to activate the first FeFET device and generate a read current which represents the conductance state of the resistive memory device, while maintaining the second FeFET device in an off state.
