  • Abstract
    Using a three-dimensional device simulator, we evaluate the single event upset probability of spin-transfer torque magnetic random access memory (STT-MRAM) supposing various radiation conditions such as linear energy transfer and incident direction. It is shown that STT-MRAM has enough tolerance for the radiation on the ground considering typical MTJ parameters for the present MRAM technology.
