Abstract
An upside-down MRAM comprises a sense transistor and a plurality of sense lines. A first end of the sense transistor is electrically connected to a low voltage. The sense lines are electrically connected in parallel between a high voltage and a second end of the sense transistor. Each of the sense lines has a control logic and at least one memory bit, and the memory bit is connected in series between the high voltage and the control logic.
