Abstract

An integrated circuit has a plurality of first memory cells, which are electrically coupled along a first line, and additionally has a plurality of second memory cells which are electrically coupled along a second line. The integrated circuit furthermore has a switching unit having a plurality of switching elements having in turn a first contact and a second contact. The first contact of a first switching element is coupled to the plurality of first memory cells, and the first contact of a second switching element is coupled to the plurality of second memory cells. In addition, the first contact of a third switching element is coupled to the second contact of the first switching element, and the first contact of a fourth switching element is coupled to the second contact of the second switching element.
