Abstract: A memory storage apparatus including a memory cell array and a memory control circuit is provided. The memory cell array includes a plurality of memory cells. The memory cell array is configured to store data. The memory control circuit is coupled to the memory cell array. The memory control circuit is configured to apply one of a set signal and a reset signal to a target memory cell among the memory cells to generate a read current. The memory control circuit receives a read current of the target memory cell. The memory control circuit compares the read current with a reference current. The memory control circuit determines whether the target memory cell is failed according to a comparison result. In addition, a method for testing a memory storage apparatus is also provided.

Abstract: A resistive memory and a resistance window recovery method for a resistive memory cell thereof are provided. During a first period, an over reset voltage difference is applied between a top electrode and a bottom electrode of the resistive memory cell, wherein the over reset voltage difference falls in a reset complementary switching (reset-CS) voltage range of the resistive memory cell. During a second period, a set voltage difference is applied between the top electrode and the bottom electrode of the resistive memory cell to increase a compliance current of the resistive memory cell. During a third period, a reset operation is performed on the resistive memory cell.

Abstract: A resistive memory apparatus and a writing method thereof are provided. In the method, logic data is received, and a corresponding resistive memory cell is selected. A logic level of the logic data is determined. When the logic data is in a first logic level, where a first reading current of the corresponding resistive memory cell is greater than a first reference current, a set pulse and a reset pulse are provided to the resistive memory cell during a writing period. When the logic data is in a second logic level, where a second reading current of the resistive memory cell is smaller than a second reference current, the reset pulse is provided to the resistive memory cell during the writing period. Polarities of the reset pulse and the set pulse are opposite.
