Abstract
An apparatus and methods store data in a magnetic random access memory (MRAM) in a fast and efficient manner. Embodiments advantageously decrease the number of clock cycles required to store data by eliminating at least one wait state in a transition from a read state to a write state. Embodiments advantageously enhance the throughput of the MRAM and a related digital circuit, such as a computer system, which advantageously enhances the operating speed of the digital circuit.
