  • Abstract
    MRAM structures based on 1T2UMTJ cell and PWWL architecture are proposed to shrink the bit size with a potential down to 6 F2 by a so-called ExtVia process and reduce the writing current by a factor of two, combined with the nature of non-volatility and high speed, making the MRAM suitable for universal memory applications.
