Abstract
A memory cell configuration has memory cells that each contain two magnetoresistive elements. If the two magnetoresistive elements of each memory cell are magnetized in such a way that they have different resistances, the information stored in the memory cell can be determined with a resistor half-bridge circuit by assessing whether the signal tapped off at the output is greater than or less than zero.
