Abstract
An integrated circuit (IC) device can include a memory array having memory elements formed with a solid ion conductor, the memory array programmable to provide portions with different response types; and a logic section comprising logic circuits configured to perform logic functions, the logic section being coupled to the memory array to store and read data values therefrom. A memory device can also have a plurality of access ports, each configurable to access any of the different portions of the memory array. A memory device can further include a read circuit configured to read data values from the different portions according to the response type of each portion.
