In the present embodiment, sampling and holding circuit 430 comprise: switch 432 and fastened the lock device by what phase inverter 434 and phase inverter 436 formed.This switch 432 is according to sampled signal S, in 412 conduction periods of the first transistor, the Dsc_Out signal is connected to by what phase inverter 434 and phase inverter 436 were formed fastens the lock device, with the stored position information of integer output organic memory cell.
Fig. 5 is each signal timing diagram of the digital sensing and detection circuit of Fig. 4 B, please be simultaneously with reference to Fig. 4 B and Fig. 5.By among the figure as can be known, the first transistor 412 for example is the P transistor npn npn, and transistor seconds 416 for example is the N transistor npn npn, so when time clock signal CK is in the semiperiod of noble potential, make the first transistor 412 not conductings and transistor seconds 416 conductings, this moment, electric capacity 414 was reset to earth potential, so that voltage signal V remains on is low () current potential.Then when time clock signal CK is in the semiperiod of electronegative potential, make the first transistor 412 conductings and transistor seconds 416 not conductings, the conduction current I that this moment, current terminal 418 flowed into is to electric capacity 414 chargings.Because the conduct electricity flow of charging is relevant with the state (the position information of being stored) of organic memory cell, the conduction current of conduction current when organic storage unit is in low impedance state when organic memory cell is in high impedance status, therefore when organic storage unit is in low impedance state, electric capacity 414 rapid charges, voltage signal V raises rapidly and surpasses the critical potential of turn-on transistor 426, make 426 conductings of the 4th transistor, and then make the Dsc_Out signal become noble potential.Relatively, when organic storage unit was in high impedance status, electric capacity 414 chargings were slow, and voltage signal can remain on electronegative potential hardly with changing, make the 4th transistor 426 keep not conducting, and the Dsc_Out signal is kept electronegative potential.Therefore, the position information that this moment, on behalf of organic memory cell, the Dsc_Out signal just can store.Sampling and holding circuit 430 be according to sampled signal S, with Dsc_Out signal integer Cheng Buhui along with the semiperiod changes, and the output signal Out of the stored position information of the simple expression of output organic memory cell.
Because organic material can't disappear along with bias voltage, and changes its residing state,, uses the organic memory of application digital sensing and detection circuit of the present invention so can be used as nonvolatile memory.
From another kind of viewpoint, a kind of digital sensing and detection circuit proposed by the invention is not limited to only be used in organic memory, and other all should utilize digital sensing and detection circuit identical in the foregoing description to detect the stored position information of this type of storer bit cell as phase transition storage or magnetic storage.
