US Patent 10157655 Memory device

According to one embodiment, a memory device includes a memory cell; and a first circuit configured to perform first read for the memory cell and generate a first voltage, write first data to the memory cell that has undergone the first read, perform second read for the memory cell to which the first data written and generate a second voltage, generate a first current based on the first voltage, generate a second current based on the second voltage, and add a third current to one of the first current and the second current, thereby determining data stored in the memory cell at the time of the first read.
