One embodiment provides an apparatus. The apparatus includes a pair of nonvolatile resistive random access memory (RRAM) memory cells coupled to a volatile static RAM (SRAM) memory cell. The pair of nonvolatile RRAM memory cells includes a first RRAM memory cell and a second RRAM memory cell. The first RRAM memory cell includes a first resistive memory element coupled to a first bit line, and a first selector transistor coupled between the first resistive memory element and a first output node of the volatile SRAM memory cell. The second RRAM memory cell includes a second resistive memory element coupled to a second bit line, and a second selector transistor coupled between the second resistive memory element and a second output node of the volatile SRAM memory cell.
