Abstract:
A memory device includes a first memory cell array including memory cells of a single-ended bitline structure, a second memory cell array including memory cells of a single-ended bitline structure, a reference voltage generator configured to output a bitline voltage of a selected one of the first and second memory cell arrays as a sensing voltage according to an array select signal and output a bitline voltage of an unselected memory cell array as a reference voltage, and a differential sense amplifier configured to amplify and output a difference between the sensing voltage and the reference voltage. Logic states of the sensing voltage and the reference voltage are complementary to each other.
Abstract:
A semiconductor memory device includes first and second word lines, a bit line, a source line, and a memory cell. The memory cell includes a spin-orbit torque (SOT) pattern having a first end electrically coupled to the source line, a magnetic tunnel junction pattern extending adjacent the SOT pattern, and a read transistor having a first current carrying terminal electrically coupled to a first end of the magnetic tunnel junction pattern, a second current carrying terminal electrically coupled to the bit line, and a gate terminal electrically coupled to the first word line. The memory cell also includes a write transistor having a first current carrying terminal electrically coupled to a second end of the SOT pattern, a second current carrying terminal electrically coupled to the first end of the magnetic tunnel junction pattern, and a gate terminal electrically coupled to the second word line.
