Commercialization of MRAM – Historical and Future Perspective

From data centers to IoT edge devices, data processing demands and evolution in computing drive the growing need for magnetoresistive random access memory (MRAM) because of its non-volatility, high speed, robust endurance, and system power savings capability. Based on a review of past successful commercialization of MRAM, this paper provides a future perspective of MRAM products. To expand the MRAM market competing with existing memories, three directions are discussed: (1) faster access time, (2) longer endurance cycles, and (3) lower bit cost.
