When to forget: A system-level perspective on STT-RAMs

17th Asia and South Pacific Design Automation Conference, 2012
The benefits of using STT-RAMs as an alternative to SRAMs are being examined in great detail. However their comparatively higher write latencies and energies continue to be roadblocks for migrating to MRAM based technology in memory hierarchies. In this paper, we present a novel method by which we demonstrate significant energy reduction in writing to ...

Enhancing the lifetime of STT-RAM with MRU replacement algorithm

2018 4th International Conference on Recent Advances in Information Technology (RAIT), 2018
Recent trends on Emerging Technologies of Non-Volatile Memory (NVM) were considered as better alternatives for SRAM. Spin-Transfer Torque Random Access Memory (STT-RAM) is a type of NVM having less leakage power and high cell density. Besides its advantages, NVM has low write endurance and high error rates.

STT-RAM read stability in DRAM operating region

2015 15th Non-Volatile Memory Technology Symposium (NVMTS), 2015
Spin-transfer-torque RAM (STT-RAM) is the most promising candidate for replacing DRAM while gaining an additional function of non-volatility. The relationship between rapid increase of spin-inversion current and stability of read operation (read disturbance) in the DRAM-array operating time region of less than 10 ns (i.e., "fast" region) was examined ...

Volatile STT-RAM Scratchpad Design and Data Allocation for Low Energy [PDF]

open access: yesTransactions on Architecture and Code Optimization, 2015
[Abstract] On-chip power consumption is one of the fundamental challenges of current technology scaling. Cache memories consume a sizable part of this power, particularly due to leakage energy.

Asymmetry in STT-RAM Cell Operations

2013
Spin-transfer torque random access memory (STT-RAM) has emerged as a promising technology to replace SRAM and DRAM in embedded memory applications. In STT-RAM, the data are stored in a magnetic device (magnetic tunneling junction or MTJ) as different resistance states.

A dual-mode architecture for fast-switching STT-RAM

Proceedings of the 2012 ACM/IEEE international symposium on Low power electronics and design, 2012
In the past, the spin-transfer torque RAM (STT-RAM) suffered from the slow write speed and the high write energy consumption. The latest progress in device engineering has dramatically reduced the write time to a few nanoseconds and hence enabled the fast-switching STT-RAM (FS-STT-RAM).
