This disclosure relates generally to memory cells and array structures for memory cells. More particularly, this disclosure relates to magnetic random access memory (MRAM) cells and array structures for spin moment transfer (SMT) MRAM cells.
The term spin moment transfer MRAM refers to a magnetic tunnel junction (MTJ) random access memory (RAM). In this context, the term “spin” refers to the angular momentum of electrons passing through an MTJ that will alter the magnetic moment of a free layer of an MTJ device. Electrons possess both electric charge and angular momentum (or spin). It is known in the art that a current of spin-polarized electrons can change the magnetic orientation of a free ferromagnetic layer of an MTJ via an exchange of spin angular momentum.
“A Novel Nonvolatile Memory with Spin-torque Transfer Magnetization Switching: Spin-Ram”, Hosomi, et al., IEEE International Electron Devices Meeting, 2005. IEDM Technical Digest. December 2005, pp.: 459-462, provides a nonvolatile memory utilizing spin-torque transfer magnetization switching (STS), abbreviated Spin-RAM. The Spin-RAM is programmed by magnetization reversal through an interaction of a spin momentum-torque-transferred current and a magnetic moment of memory layers in magnetic tunnel junctions (MTJs), and therefore an external magnetic field is unnecessary as that for a conventional MRAM.
A spin-torque MTJ element has two ferromagnetic layers and a spacer layer between the ferromagnetic layers. One ferromagnetic layer is a pinned magnetic layer and the other ferromagnetic layer is a free magnetic layer. The spacer layer is a tunnel barrier layer. When a spin polarized electron flows through the ferromagnetic layers, the spin direction rotates according to the directions of magnetic moment. The rotation of spin direction of the electrons in the ferromagnetic layers is the origin of a spin-torque to the magnetic moment. If the given torque is large enough, magnetization of ferromagnetic layer and thus the magnetic moment is reversed. The magnetization of the ferromagnetic layers transforms from parallel to anti-parallel alignment. This changes the MTJ element from a low resistance state to a high resistance state thus changing the logic state of the MTJ element from a first logic state (0) to a second logic state (1). A voltage source provides the programming voltage that generates the programming current that is reversed appropriately change the programming state of the MTJ element. Reading an SMT MRAM cell involves applying a voltage across the SMT MRAM cell and detecting the resistance (or current) difference.
As illustrated in
The gate of the gating transistor 110 is connected to a word line 130. The word line 130 transfers a word line select voltage to the gate of the gating transistor 110 to activate the gating transistor 110 for reading or writing the logic state of the MTJ element 105. A sense amplifier 135 has one input terminal connected to the bit line and a second input terminal connected to a voltage reference circuit. When the word line 130 has the word line select voltage activated to turn on the gating transistor 110, the bipolar write pulse/read bias generator 125 generates a bias current that passes through MTJ element 105. A voltage is developed across the MTJ element 105 that is sensed by the sense amplifier 135 and compared with the reference voltage generator to determine the logic state written to the MTJ element 105. This logic state is transferred to the output terminal of the sense amplifier 135 as to the data output signal 145.
Arrays of spin moment transfer (SMT) MRAM cell 100 are arranged in rows and columns. Each row of the spin-transfer based magneto tunnel junction memory devices may have their source line 120 commonly connected to a source line selection circuit or tied to a ground reference point. In other arrangements of an array of SMT MRAM cells 100, as shown in U. S. Patent Application 200/60018057 (Huai), the SMT MRAM cells 100 are organized into an array having two bit lines. The two bit lines are structures such that the current flowing perpendicularly through the MTJ 105 is controlled by the difference of the bias voltages of the two bit lines for each spin moment transfer (SMT) MRAM cell 100. Two reading/writing column selection circuits are provided to control the voltages on the bit lines.
An object of this disclosure is to provide an array of SMT MRAM cells with paired columns of the SMT MRAM cells having shared bit lines with means for lowering the resistance of the shared bit lines.
Another object of this disclosure is inhibiting program disturbance of a non-selected column of a pair of columns of the SMT MRAM cells.
To accomplish at least one of these objects, an array of SMT MRAM cells is arranged in rows and columns. An array of SMT MRAM cells is arranged in rows and columns. Each of the columns of SMT MRAM cells is associated with one of its adjacent columns of SMT MRAM cells. Each column is connected to a true data bit line and each associated pair of columns of SMT MRAM cells is connected to a shared complement data bit line. A shunting switch device is connected between each of the true data bit lines and the shared complement data bit line for selectively connecting one of the true data bit lines to the shared complement data bit line to effectively reduce the resistance of the complement data bit line and to eliminate program disturb effects in adjacent non-selected columns of the SMT MRAM cells. An activation terminal of each of the shunting switch device is connected to a column address decoder such that the shunting switch device is activated to connect the true data bit line associated with the non-selected column in parallel with the complement data bit line. The shared complement data bit line may be wider than the true data bit line to further lower the resistance of the shared complement data bit line. In some embodiments the shared complement data bit line may be twice the dimension of the true data bit line.
In other embodiments, a bit line structure for connecting columns of SMT MRAM cells within an array of SMT MRAM cells has a true data bit line connected to an MTJ device of each SMT MRAM cell of each column of the SMT MRAM cells. A complement data bit line is connected to a source of a gating transistor of each SMT MRAM cell of the each column of the SMT MRAM cells. The bit line structure has a shunting switch transistor connected between the true data bit line and the complement data bit line of the associated pairs of columns of the SMT MRAM cells. The shunting switch transistors have an activation terminal that, when activated, connects the true data bit line of an unselected column of the SMT MRAM cells in parallel with the shared complement data bit line to effectively reduce program disturb effects in the unselected column of SMT MRAM cells. The shared complement data bit line may be wider than the true data bit line to further lower the resistance of the shared complement data bit line. The shared complement data bit line may be twice the dimension of the true data bit line.
In other embodiments, a method for reducing resistance of a shared bit line and reducing program disturb effects of unselected columns of SMT MRAM cells in an array of SMT MRAM cells begins by providing an array of SMT MRAM cells where columns of the SMT MRAM cells are mutually connected to a shared complement data bit line through the source of a gating transistor of each of the. SMT MRAM cells of the pair of columns of SMT MRAM cells. The shared complement data bit line may be wider than the true data bit line to further lower the resistance of the shared complement data bit line.

A source of a gating transistor of the pair of adjacent columns of SMT MRAM cells is connected to a complement data bit line. A shunting switch transistor is connected between the true data bit line and the complement data bit line of the associated pairs of columns of the SMT MRAM cells. During a program operation, an address is decoded to select a row and columns of the array of SMT MRAM cells. An activation terminal of each of the shunting switch transistor of each unselected column of the array of SMT MRAM cells is initiated to turn on the shunting switch transistors to connect the true data bit line of the unselected column of the SMT MRAM cells in parallel with the shared complement data bit line to effectively reduce program disturb effects in the unselected column of SMT MRAM cells. The programming drive current is then activated to program the selected SMT MRAM cells of the selected rows and columns.
Further, in other embodiments, an array of SMT MRAM cells is arranged in rows and columns. Each of the columns of SMT MRAM cells is associated with one of its adjacent columns of SMT MRAM cells. Each column is connected to a true data bit line and to a complement data bit line.

The complement data bit lines are connected such that they are shared during a program operation to further reduce the resistance of the complement data bit lines. An activation terminal of each of the shunting switch devices is connected to a column address decoder such that the shunting switch device is activated to connect the true data bit line associated with the non-selected column in parallel with the complement data bit line.
Still further, in other embodiments, an array of SMT MRAM cells is arranged in rows and columns. Each of the columns of SMT MRAM cells is associated with one of its adjacent columns of SMT MRAM cells. Each column is connected to a true data bit line and to a complement data bit line. At least one true data bit line shunting switch device is connected between the true data bit line and the complement data bit line of the connected columns of SMT MRAM cells for selectively connecting one of the true data bit lines to the complement data bit line. The complement data bit lines of the associated adjacent columns have at least one complement data bit line shunting switch device connected between the adjacent complement data bit lines such that they are shared during a program operation to further reduce the resistance of the complement data bit lines.

Referring to
The complement data bit line 155 that is connected to the source of the gating transistor 110, is the first metal layer line in the physical construction of the SMT MRAM memory cell 100. The true data bit line 150 is the last, or the top most metal line in the physical cell stack. The first metal bit line of the complement data bit line 155 has to share the space with vias connecting the drain side of the gating transistor 110 to the bottom plate 102 of MTJ element 105 thus forcing the first metal bit line of the complement data bit line 155 usually to be thinner. The first metal bit line of the complement data bit line 155 being narrower and thinner are therefore much more resistive than the top true data bit line 150. By sharing two adjacent complement data bit lines 155, the width of shared line is effectively wider by three times—two lines plus the spacing between the two adjacent complement data bit lines 155. The disadvantage of doing so is that the SMT MRAM memory cell 100 adjacent to the cell being programmed will see a disturb condition because they share the same selected Word line 130. The shunting transistor (or transistors if we put more than one between the bit lines true and complement) will help to reduce this disturb condition. The further reduction in resistance of the two adjacent complement data bit lines 155 comes from the neighboring true bit line 150 is also in parallel with the complement bit line 155. But this requires more than one shunting transistor between the true and complement bit lines.
