Abstract:
A circuit includes a resistive memory cell in a memory array to store a memory state for the resistive memory cell. A reference cell in the memory array stores a reference memory state for the resistive memory cell. A function generator concurrently applies a read voltage to the resistive memory cell and the reference cell via a memory row address. A sensing circuit enables the function generator and monitors a target current received from the resistive memory cell when selected via a memory column address and monitors a reference current received when selected via a reference column address in response to the read voltage applied to the memory row address. A current comparator circuit in the sensing circuit compares a difference between the target current and the reference current to determine the memory state of the resistive memory cell.

Claim (Index 6):
The circuit of  claim 2 , further comprising a second current mirror having an output to mirror the output from the first current mirror, wherein the output of the second current mirror is scaled via a scaling transistor to a threshold current value that is lower than the reference current as mirrored by the first current mirror, the threshold current value is supplied to a common node in the current comparator circuit driven by the target current, if the target current is above the threshold current value at the common node, the resistive memory cell is sensed as a low resistance state (LRS), if the target current is below the threshold current value at the common node, the resistive memory cell is sensed as a high resistance state (HRS).
