Abstract

A magnetic bit structure for a magneto-resistive memory is disclosed that has bit ends that are sufficiently large to accommodate a minimum size contact or via hole. By providing such an arrangement, the magnetic bit structure may be fabricated using conventional contact and/or via processing steps. As such, the cost of manufacturing the device may be reduced, and the overall achievable yield may be increased.
