Abstract: The present disclosure, in some embodiments, relates to a method of operating a resistive random access memory (RRAM) array. The method includes applying a word-line voltage to a selected word-line during a read operation. A non-zero voltage is applied to a selected bit-line during the read operation. A first voltage is applied to a selected source-line during the read operation. The first voltage is smaller than a second voltage applied to an unselected source-line during the read operation.
