Abstract :
The toggle cell of MRAM needs large current for writing. In this work, the negative pulse scheme for toggle writing is proposed, and the implemented architecture is also described. The scheme can reduce the writing current and improve the toggle yield. A single current source scheme is also designed to provide the symmetrical and bi-directional current
