Abstract:
Disclosed is a non-volatile memory (NVM) device including an array of NVM cells segmented into at least a first sector and a second sector and at least one sensing circuit to sense a state of a target NVM cell in the first sector using a reference current of the second sector received from at least a dynamic reference cell.

Claim (Index 20):
A method of operating a non-volatile memory (NVM) array, the method comprising:\n receiving a target current on a first bitline from a target NVM cell in a first sector having a first group of wordlines, wherein the target NVM cell is in a data-cell sub-sector of the first sector; generating a reference current, wherein generating the reference current comprises summing at least a first current and a second current on a second bitline, wherein the first current is from a first reference NVM cell in a second sector having a second group of wordlines, wherein the first reference NVM cell is in a reference sub-sector of the second sector, and wherein loads on the first bitline and the second bitline are matched; and sensing a state of the target NVM cell, wherein sensing the state of the target NVM sell comprises comparing the target current to the reference current.
