Abstract

A method of controlling a resistive switching memory cell can include: receiving a first command to be executed on the resistive switching memory cell; performing, in response to the first command, an erase operation to erase the resistive switching memory cell to an erased state; verifying the erased state of the resistive switching memory cell; performing a weak program operation to program the resistive switching memory cell to a first programmed state; and verifying the first programmed state of the resistive switching memory cell.
