Abstract

Technology for writing data to a phase change memory array is disclosed. In an example, a method may include identifying mask logic for masking cells in the phase change memory array and routing the mask logic to the cells. The method may further include routing input data to the cells. Set and reset pulses for the cells may be selectively prevented or inhibited based on the mask logic.
