    摘要: A magnetic random access memory with tape read line, fabricating method and circuit thereof is provided. The memory is composed of a top write line, a bottom write line which is vertical to the top write line, a MTJ formed on the bottom write line, a spacer formed around the MTJ, and a tape read line formed on the MTJ. The fabricating steps involves forming a bottom write line, forming a MTJ on the bottom write, and forming a tape read line on the MTJ sequentially. In the circuit, the tape read line is either parallel to or vertical to the top write line.

    摘要: A current source for magnetic random access memory (MRAM) is provided, including a band-gap reference circuit, a first stage buffer, and a plurality of second stage buffers. The band-gap reference circuit provides an output reference voltage which is locked by the first stage buffer. The plurality of second stage buffers generate a stable voltage in response to the locked voltage, so as to provide a current for the conducting wire after being converted, such that magnetic memory cell changes its memory state in response to the current. The current source may reduce the discharge time under the operation of biphase current, so as to raise the operating speed. Further, the circuit area of the current source for the MRAM is also reduced. The operation of multiple write wires may be provided simultaneously to achieve parallel write.

    摘要: A method for writing a memory cell of a magnetoresistive random access memory (MRAM) device includes, sequentially, providing a first magnetic field in a first direction, providing a second magnetic field in a second direction substantially perpendicular to the first direction, turning off the first magnetic field, providing a third magnetic field in a third direction opposite to the first direction, turning off the second magnetic field, and turning off the third magnetic field. A method for switching magnetic moments in an MRAM memory cell includes providing a magnetic field in a direction forming a blunt angle with a direction of a bias magnetic field. A method for reading an MRAM device includes partially switching magnetic moments in a reference memory cell to generate a reference current; measuring a read current through a memory cell to be read; and comparing the read current with the reference current.
