Recent Progress and Next Directions for Embedded MRAM Technology

MRAM can play a variety of on-chip memory roles in advanced VLSI technology spanning from high retention, solder-reflow-capable non-volatile memory (NVM) to dense non-volatile or high retention working RAMs. This paper describes results for a solder-reflow-capable MRAM NVM and for extensions that trade off high retention against speed, power, and density.
