摘要: Nanoelectronic molecular and magnetic tunnel junction (MTJ) MRAM crossbar memory systems have the potential to present significant area advantages (4 6F2) compared CMOS-based systems. The scalability of these conductivity-switched RAM arrays is examined by establishing criteria for correct functionality based on readout margin. Using a combined circuit theoretical modelling simulation approach, impact both device interconnect architecture conductivity-state system quantified. This establishes showing conditions on/off ratios large-scale integration devices, guiding design. With 10% margin resistive load, needs an ratio at least 7 be integrated into 64 × array, while 43 necessary scale 512 512.
