Abstract
A magnetic memory includes a magnetoresistive device and a load resistance unit. The magnetoresistive device has a first resistance state and a second resistance state and includes a first ferromagnetic layer and a second ferromagnetic layer. The load resistance unit is electrically connected to the magnetoresistive device. The load resistance unit is in a first state and a second state. Differential resistance of the load resistance unit at the second state is lower than differential resistance of the load resistance unit at the first state.
