N2 - Phase transition materials (PTM) [1] have shown an immense promise for several applications such as realizing steep switching Phase-FETs [1], augmenting the read operation of memories [2-3], non-linear selectors for cross-point memory arrays [4] and in the design of neurons [5] and oscillators [6]. Their unique properties open up new avenues for other designs as well and therefore, there is a need to identify such opportunities to harness the full potential of PTM. In this work, we propose a low area low power current sense amplifier (SA) utilizing distinct properties of PTM such as abrupt insulator ↔ metal transitions and high resistivity ratio.
