    Abstract: A device includes memory cells, a reference circuit, and a sensing unit. The reference circuit includes a first reference switch, a second reference switch, and reference storage units. The first reference switch is turned on when a reference word line is activated. The second reference switch is turned on when the reference word line is activated. The reference storage units include a first reference storage unit and a second reference storage unit. The first reference storage unit generates a first signal having a first logic state when the first reference switch is turned on. The second reference storage unit generates a second signal having a second logic state when the second reference switch is turned on. The sensing unit determines a logic state of the bit data of one of the memory cells according to the first signal and the second signal.

    Abstract: A memory device includes: a memory bit cell; a write circuit, coupled to the memory bit cell, and configured to use a first voltage to transition the memory bit cell to a first logic state by changing a respective resistance state of the memory bit cell, and compare a first current flowing through the memory bit cell with a first reference current; and a control logic circuit, coupled to the write circuit, and configured to determine whether the first logic state is successfully written into the memory bit cell based on a read-out logic state of the memory bit cell and the comparison between the first current and first reference current.
