    Abstract: A resistance memory includes a resistance memory cell having a resistance memory element and a two-terminal access device in series. The two-terminal access device affects the current-voltage characteristic of the resistance memory cell. The resistance memory additionally includes a circuit to apply across the resistance memory cell a set pulse having a set polarity to set the resistance memory cell to a low-resistance state that is retained after application of the set pulse, a reset pulse having a reset polarity, opposite to the set polarity, to reset the resistance memory cell to a high-resistance state that is retained after application of the reset pulse, and a read pulse of the reset polarity and smaller in magnitude than the reset pulse to determine the resistance state of the resistance memory cell without changing the resistance state of the resistance memory cell.

    Abstract: A resistive RAM device includes a bit line, a word line, an RRAM cell coupled to the word line and to the bit line, a write driver and a disable circuit. The write driver is coupled to the bit line. The disable circuit stops a write operation performed by the write driver on a respective RRAM cell when a predefined condition on the bit line is achieved. The predefined condition depends on a mode of operation of the RRAM cell.

    Abstract: Command/address and timing information is distributed to buffer integrated circuits on a module using multiple wavelengths of light modulated with the same information. Each individual wavelength of modulated light carrying command/address information is received by a corresponding single buffer device that deserializes the command/address information and communicates it electrically to memory devices(s). Likewise, each individual wavelength of modulated light carrying timing/synchronization/clock information is received by a corresponding single buffer device and used to synchronize accesses to the memory device(s). Thus, multiple buffer integrated circuits on a module each receive information from the CPU using different wavelengths of light transmitted on the same waveguide.

    Abstract: A nonvolatile memory device that uses pulsed control and rest periods to mitigate the formation of defect precursors. A first embodiment uses pulsed bitline control, where the coupling between a memory cell channel and a reference voltage is pulsed when it is desired to change state in the associated memory cell. Each pulse may be chosen to be less than about 20 nanoseconds, while a “rest period” between pulses can be on the order of about a hundred nanoseconds or greater. Because bitline control is used, very short rise times can be enabled, enabling generation of pulse durations of 50 nanoseconds or less. In other embodiments, these methods may also be more generally applied to other conductors (e.g., wordline or substrate well, for program or erase operations); segmented wordlines or bitlines may also be used, to minimize RC loading and enable sufficiently short rise times to make pulses robust.

    Abstract: The embodiments are directed to technologies for variable pitch vertical interconnect design for scalable escape routing in semiconductor devices. One semiconductor device includes a circuit die, and an array of circuit die interconnects located on the circuit die. The array includes a first triangular octant of interconnects that are organized in rows and columns, each column incrementing its number of interconnects from a first side of the first triangular octant to a second side of the first triangular octant. A pitch size between the columns increases in a first repeating pattern from the first side to the second side.
