Abstract
Disclosed are examples of multiple bit magnetoresistive random access memory (MRAM) cells. A multiple bit MRAM cell may comprise a fixed layer, alternately stacked N tunnel barriers and N free layers, and a tunnel cap. N, which may represent number of bits of the MRAM cell, may be greater than or equal to two. Magnetic moment of the fixed layer may be fixed in one perpendicular direction. Magnetic moments of the free layers may be switchable from one to other perpendicular directions upon application of switch currents. The switch currents may be different for different layers. The magnetic moments of the free layers may be switched separately or otherwise independently of other free layers when the switch currents are applied separately.
