Abstract:
1. An organic memory, comprising: i select lines; j data lines; a bit cell array, comprising a plurality of bit cells, wherein one of the bit cells is connected between each data line and each select line, each bit cell comprises an organic memory cell and a switch element, and the organic memory cell is used to store at least one bit of information; and j digital sensing circuits, wherein each digital sensing circuit is connected to one of the data lines and senses the bit information stored in the organic memory cell according to a conduction current flowing through the organic memory cell, and each digital sensing circuit comprises: wherein, the bit cell row B(n) is defined as all bit cells connected to the nth select line, when the nth select line is actuated, the switch elements in the bit cell row B(n) connect the organic memory cells in the bit cell row B(n) to the respective data lines, and the digital sensing circuits sense and read the bit information stored in the organic memory cells of the bit cell row B(n) through the data lines, wherein i, j, n are natural numbers, and n<=i.
