Abstract
A magnetic memory is less susceptible to external magnetic fields and, thus, to writing errors and other adverse effects caused by external magnetic fields. In the magnetic memory, a magnetoresistive element is arranged adjacent to a part of a conductor line. A shield structure is also arranged to shield the magnetoresistive element against external magnetic fields generated by factors other then the part of the line.
