How Emerging Memories Extend Battery Life

In recent years, non-volatile memory (NVM) technologies have emerged as candidates for future universal memory. NVMs generally have advantages such as low leakage power, high density, and fast read spead. At the same time, NVMs also have disadvantages. ...

Among all emerging memories, Spin-Transfer Torque Random Access Memory (STT-RAM) has shown many promising features such as fast access speed, nonvolatility, compatibility to CMOS process and excellent scalability. However, large process variations of ...

Scaling conventional memories such as SRAM, DRAM and Floating Gate Flash has become difficult in the nanotechnology regions where the properties historically associated with these memories change. Scaled SRAM issues include decreased cell stability, ...
