Method and apparatus for initializing resistive random access memory and electronic device

An apparatus for initializing a resistive random access memory, comprising:

• a first input unit, configured to input a plurality of pulses of a first voltage into the resistive random access memory until memory cells in the resistive random access memory transition from a high resistance state to a low resistance state;
