Title:
MRAM装置
Document Type and Number:
Japanese Patent JP4630314
Kind Code:
B2
Abstract:
A write circuit (24) for a large array (10) of memory cells (12) of a Magnetic Random Access Memory ("MRAM") device (8) comprises a column driven (32) for each memory cell block, the column drivers (32) writing to different blocks at different times. The write circuit (24) provides a controllable, bi-directional write current to selected word and bit lines (14 and 16) without exceeding breakdown limits of the memory cells (12). Additionally, the write circuit (24) spreads out the write currents over time to reduce peak currents.
