Abstract

In a matrix of SOT-MRAM cells, a first row is selected for writing and a second row is selected for reading. A first SOT-MRAM cell of the first row and a second SOT-MRAM of the second row are in a first column, while a third SOT-MRAM cell of the first row and a fourth SOT-MRAM of the second row are in a second column. The currents for writing the first SOT-MRAM cell and the third SOT-MRAM cell are in opposite direction. A first sense amplifier is configured to detect a voltage change on the first read bit line which is charged with a first read current in the second SOT-MRAM cell. A second sense amplifier is configured to detect a voltage change on the second read bit line which is discharged with a second read current in a fourth SOT-MRAM cell.
