Memory cell (102), comprising: a
write bit line; a write
transistor (M1, M1') coupled between the
write bit line and a first node (ND1); and a read
transistor (M2, M2') which is coupled to the write
transistor (M1, M1') via the first node (ND1); wherein the read transistor (M2, M2') has a ferroelectric layer (202, 520) and the write transistor (M1, M1') is designed to set a stored
data value of the
memory cell (102) by means of a
write bit line
signal which sets a polarization state of the read transistor, wherein the polarization state corresponds to the stored
data value; where the write transistor (M1, M1') has: a first drain terminal that is coupled to the write
bit line; a first source terminal coupled to the first node (ND1) and the read transistor (M2, M2'); and a first gate connection that is coupled to a write word line; where the read transistor (M2, M2') has: a second drain connection coupled to a second node; a
second source port that is coupled to a third node; and a second gate terminal on the ferroelectric layer (202, 520) which is coupled to the first source terminal via the first node (ND1); wherein the
memory cell (102) further comprises: a first transistor (M3, M3') coupled to the read transistor (M2, M2'), wherein the first transistor has: a third drain port that is coupled to the
second source port via the third node; a third source port coupled with a
read bit line; and a third gate connector; wherein the second drain terminal is coupled to a reference
voltage supply via the second node; and the third gate connection is coupled with a read word line; and wherein the
memory cell (102) further comprises: a second transistor (M4, M4') coupled via the first node (ND1) to the read transistor (M2, M2') and the write transistor (M1, M1'), the second transistor comprising: a fourth drain connection that is coupled to the read word line; a fourth source port coupled to a fourth node (ND2); and a fourth gate connection, which is coupled via the first node (ND1) to the first source connection and the second gate connection.
