Abstract

Recent announcement of 16Gbits Resistive memory from Sony shows the trend to quickly adopt resistive memories as an alternative to DRAM. However, using ReRAM for embedded computing is still a futuristic goal. This paper approaches two applications based on ReRAM-devices for gaining area, performance or power consumption. The first application is FPGA, one of the first architecture that can benefit the most from ReRAM integration to reduce footprint and save energy. The second application relates to ultra-low-power systems and the way to obtain an instantaneous “freeze” mode in devices for Internet of Things.
