ABSTRACT:
A storage system includes a substrate, control circuitry on the substrate, a three dimensional memory array (above the substrate) that includes a plurality of reversible resistance-switching elements, and circuits for limiting the SET current for the reversible resistance-switching elements. The memory cell is SET in a reverse biased fashion.
