Spin Torque Transfer Mram as a Universal Memory
نویسنده
چکیده
The current multi-core era has resulted in the integration of increasing numbers of cores into the microprocessors used to power computers and cell phones. Spin-Transfer Torque RAM (STT-RAM) is an emerging non-volatile memory technology with the potential to be used as universal memory. STT MRAM with read and write current is discusses here . In addition to that application of STT MRAM as a cache design is also

Study of Two Writing Schemes for a Magnetic Tunnel Junction Based On Spin Orbit Torque
MRAM technology provides a combination of fast access time, non-volatility, data retention and endurance. While a growing interest is given to two-terminal Magnetic Tunnel Junctions (MTJ) based on Spin-Transfer Torque (STT) switching as the potential candidate for a universal memory, its reliability is dramatically decreased because of the common writing/reading path. Three-terminal MTJ based o...

متن کاملA Comparative Study between Spin-Transfer-Torque (STT) and Spin-Hall-Effect (SHE) Switching Mechanisms in PMTJ using SPICE
Spin transfer torque magnetoresistive random access memory (STT-MRAM) is the leading candidate for spinbased memories. Nevertheless, the high write energy and read disturbance of STT-MRAM motivated researchers to find other solutions. Spin Hall effect (SHE) based MRAM is an alternative for STT-MRAM which also provides non-volatility, zero leakage, and competitive area per bit, but with a lower ...
