Abstract: Disclosed is a memory architecture com-prising at least one memory bit cell and at least one read bit line whose voltage is controlled and changed by a cur-rent from a current controller. Each memory bit cell has a storage mechanism, a controlled current source, and a read switch. The controlled current source in each memo-ry bit cell is electrically connected to the read bit line through the read switch. The current from the current con-troller that controls and changes the read bit line voltage flows through the controlled current source in the memo-ry bit cell. The value of this current is determined by a function of a difference between the voltage on the stor-age mechanism in the memory bit cell and a reference voltage from a reference voltage input to the current con-troller.    In some versions an indicator is provided for indi-cating when to stop the current in the controlled current source that controls a voltage change on one of the read bit lines. The indicator has an on and an off condition and a switch is provided for stopping the current in the con-trolled current source when the indicator is activated in the on condition. The current in the controlled current source is stopped when the voltage change on the read bit line is greater than a predetermined threshold.
