Abstract
This paper modifies the magnetic RAM (MRAM) architecture by removing a current rectifier per cell without sacrificing performance. A read operation of stored data is maintained by introducing a simple concept of"virtual ground" of operational amplifier. The modified MRAM design offers a reduced element area and therefore achieves an over tenfold improvement in storage density. The proposed architecture has been proven operable by an engineering experiment

A case for small row buffers in non-volatile main memories
ICCD '12: Proceedings of the 2012 IEEE 30th International Conference on Computer Design (ICCD 2012)DRAM-based main memories have read operations that destroy the read data, and as a result, must buffer large amounts of data on each array access to keep chip costs low. Unfortunately, system-level trends such as increased memory contention in multi-...
Enabling Efficient and Scalable Hybrid Memories Using Fine-Granularity DRAM Cache Management
Hybrid main memories composed of DRAM as a cache to scalable non-volatile memories such as phase-change memory (PCM) can provide much larger storage capacity than traditional main memories. A key challenge for enabling high-performance and scalable ...
Enabling high-performance LPDDRx-compatible MRAM
ISLPED '14: Proceedings of the 2014 international symposium on Low power electronics and designDRAM consumes a significant amount of energy in mobile computing devices today. Emerging non-volatile memory such as magnetoresistive memory (MRAM) offers a DRAM alternative and can potentially lead to a more energy-efficient memory system. The MRAM ...
