  • Abstract
    An empirical model for calculating the SET and RESET state resistance of phase change memory (PCM) is developed base on a resistor network method. The model has been extensively compared with numerical simulations with good accuracy. The model can be directly implemented into SPICE for simulating circuits with PCM elements.
