Abstract

A circuit that includes a current source module, a current sink module and a memory bank is disclosed. Each of the current source module, the current sink module and the memory bank is connected to the first bit/source line and the second bit/source line. The memory bank is bounded by the current source module and the current sink module. When the current source module and the current sink module receive a triggering pulse from the first bit/source line and a select signal with a first state, the current source module is activated to generate an operating current to the first bit/source line that transmits through a conducted memory cell of the memory bank and the current sink module is activated to drain the operating current from the second bit/source line.
