Abstract
A non-volatile memory element with dual programmable cells and associated read circuit, which comprises a circuit of the bistable type connected between the two memory cells, to which it is coupled through first and second switching circuit elements. Such switching elements enable a single initial write step by one of the two memory cells only, and thereafter, enable connection of the clear cell and the programmed cell to the bistable circuit.
