Abstract:
A method is provided for a reading memory even if there is a threshold voltage in an overlapped threshold voltage ( VTH ) region between a first state distribution and a second state distribution. The method includes ramping a bias on a memory cell a first time to determine a first threshold voltage (V TH1 ) of the memory cell and determining whether the V TH1  is within the overlapped VTH region. Upon determination that the memory cell is within the overlapped V TH  region, the method further includes applying a write pulse to the memory cell; ramping a bias on the memory cell a second time to determine a second threshold voltage (V TH2 ); and determining the state of the memory cell prior to receiving the write pulse based on a comparison between the V TH1  and the V TH2 .

Claim (Index 11):
The apparatus of  claim 10 , wherein determining the first electrical response is based at least in part on ramping an initial bias on the memory cell.
