摘要
According to a method for multi level - reading of a change in phase - memory cell, first a bit line (9) and a pws - cell (2) is selected, and a first bias voltage (vBl, V00) at the selected bit line (9) is applied. A first read current (iRd00), the by the selected bit line (9) in response to said first bias voltage (vBl, V00) flows, with a first reference current (i00) compared. The first reference current (i00) is such that the first read current (iRd00) is smaller than the first reference current (i00), if the selected pws - cell (2) in a reset - state, and otherwise greater. It is then determined whether the selected pws - cell (2) in the reset - state, on the basis of the comparing the first sense current (iRd00) with the first reference current (i00). A second bias voltage (vBl, V01), the greater than the first bias voltage (vBl, V00) on the selected bit line (9) applied, if the selected pws - cell (2) is not in the reset - state.
