Technical field
The present invention relates to a kind of magnetic random access memory, particularly about the programmed circuit of a kind of reluctance type memory cell structure and magnetic random access memory.
Background technology
Magnetic random access memory (Magnetic Random Access Memory, be designated hereinafter simply as MRAM) be a kind of metallicl magnetic material, its radiation resistance is more high than semiconductor material, belong to non-volatility memorizer (Non-volatile Random Access Memory), different with dynamic RAM (DRAM) or static RAM (SRAM) material, in the time of computer outage, shutdown, still can keep storage property.
MRAM belongs to non-volatility memorizer, so magnetoresistance characteristics store recording information has low power consuming, non-volatile, permanent character.Its its working principles is the same with storage data on hard disk, and data are foundation with the direction of magnetic, are stored as 0 or 1, and stored data have permanent, after by extraneous influence of magnetic field, just can change this magnetic data.
Figure 1A and Figure 1B have shown the structural representation of mram cell: electric current can vertically flow through (or passing) another electromagnetic layer 106 by an electromagnetic layer 102 by insulation course (tunnel junction) 104.The magnetic axis direction of free magnetic axis layer (free layer) 102 is to be subjected to the outside to apply the influence in magnetic field and change, and fixedly the magnetic axis direction of magnetic axis layer (pinned layer) 106 is fixed, and free pole magnetic axis direction is respectively shown in the label 108A and 108B of Figure 1A and Figure 1B.As free magnetic axis layer 102 when fixedly the magnetic axis direction of magnetic axis layer 106 is same direction (shown in Figure 1A), mram cell presents low-resistance characteristic, and when free magnetic axis layer 102 when fixedly magnetic axis layer 106 is different directions, then mram cell just has and has high-resistance characteristic.
Fig. 2 is the graph of a relation of external magnetic field and mram cell switching condition.Longitudinal magnetic field H lThe rough magnetic axis direction of direction with free magnetic axis layer 102 parallel, and transverse magnetic field H tThe rough magnetic axis direction quadrature with free magnetic axis layer 102 of direction.There is not transverse magnetic field H tSituation under, and longitudinal magnetic field H lBe H 0The time, will cause the magnetic axis direction of free magnetic axis layer 102 to be switched.If transverse magnetic field H is arranged tExistence, the critical value that the magnetic axis direction of free magnetic axis layer 102 is switched will be reduced, therefore, apply than H 0Little longitudinal magnetic field H lCan make mram cell switch its conducting state.
As mentioned above, the magnetic axis direction of free magnetic axis layer 102 has determined the conducting state (high resistance and low resistance) of mram cell.In the formed regional A of dotted line, mram cell is first conducting state (is example with the high impedance), and the part beyond regional A, mram cell will be subjected to the influence in magnetic field and switch to another conducting state (is example with the Low ESR).
Fig. 3 is the magnetic direction synoptic diagram that shows free magnetic axis layer 102.In the time the magnetic axis vector M of free magnetic axis layer 102 will being switched to other direction, being subjected to following factor influences.If externally-applied magnetic field H ExtWhen surpassing a critical magnetic field, will cause the magnetic axis vector M deflection of free magnetic axis layer 102.At first analysis of magnetic axial vector M is in the component of directions X and Y direction.
The magnetic axis vector M in the component of directions X is:
H DX=M Xt/L=Mt/Lcosθ
The magnetic axis vector M in the component of Y direction is:
H DY=M Yt/L=Mt/Wcosθ
Wherein t is the thickness of free magnetic axis layer 102, and L is the length that free magnetic axis layer 102 changes long limit, and W is the length of free magnetic axis layer 102 than minor face, and θ is the angle of magnetic axis vector M and free magnetic axis layer 102 longer sides.
The factor that determines above-mentioned critical magnetic field size is except the required magnetic field of the magnetic axis vector M of deflection free magnetic axis layer 102, comprise that also induced field that magnetic axis M induced in free magnetic axis layer 102 two ends is (with "+", "-" symbolic representation), above-mentioned induced field is the two ends that betide free magnetic axis layer 102, it suppresses magnetic axis M deflection, and meaning promptly makes the magnetic axis vector M produce opposing and is subjected to externally-applied magnetic field H ExtThe strength of deflection.Is Mt/W from magnetic axis layer 102 in the longitudinal axis (X) induction field that direction produced, and is Mt/L in transverse axis (Y) induction field that direction produced.
In addition, the size of critical magnetic field also is subjected to being influenced by easy axle (easy axis) direction of magnetic axis layer 102 own materials, and easily axial vector is H K, it forms reason is to be subjected to the magnetic field induction of external environment and to produce in semiconductor fabrication.At the identical externally-applied magnetic field H of supply ExtSituation under, when the direction of easy axle was the Y direction, this moment, the angle of magnetic axis vector M and free magnetic axis layer 102 longer sides was θ α, and when easily the direction of axle was directions X, this moment, the angle of magnetic axis vector M and free magnetic axis layer 102 longer sides was θ β
tgθ α=(H ext+H K+Mt/L)/(Mt/W)
tgθ β=(H ext+Mt/L)/(Mt/w+H K)
As from the foregoing, at identical externally-applied magnetic field H ExtSituation under, tg θ α>tg θ βAs seen as easy axial vector H KDuring than the direction of minor face, the magnetic axis vector M is easier to deflection for parallel free magnetic axis layer 102.Also promptly, can be changed direction by less externally-applied magnetic field.
When mram cell was write data, the spin flip conversion magnetic field of each mram cell was produced by foreign current, then had only the magnetic axis of selecteed mram cell to reverse through moving thus, and the action of smooth record.More little as if the external magnetic field that spin flip conversion is required, then can reduce the magnitude of current, reach the effect of saving electric power then.Yet because the cause of Free Electromagnetic layer (free layer) internal magnetic field, its easy axis direction normally is parallel to long limit and increases the difficulty of switching the magnetic axis direction.

Second embodiment
Fig. 6 has shown the Organization Chart according to the described magnetic random access memory of second embodiment of the invention (MRAM) circuit.The inner structure of reluctance type storage unit 60A and 60B (or claiming the magnetic passage to connect the face unit) is shown in Figure 1A, have fixedly magnetic axis layer 106, free magnetic axis layer 102, and be arranged at insulation course (magnetictunneling junction) 104 between fixing magnetic axis layer 106 and the free magnetic axis layer 102, and the magnetic resistance of reluctance type storage unit 60A and 60B (magneto-resistance) is determined by the fixing magnetic axis direction of magnetic axis layer 106 and free magnetic axis layer 102.When free magnetic axis layer 102 when fixedly the magnetic axis direction of magnetic axis layer 106 is same direction, mram cell has low-resistance situation, and when free magnetic axis layer 102 and when fixedly magnetic axis layer 106 is different directions, then mram cell just has and has high-resistance speciality.
The free magnetic axis layer 102 of mram cell 60A and 60B is electrically connected at the bit line Bn with a set direction configuration, and the fixedly magnetic axis layer 106 of mram cell 60A and 60B is to be electrically connected at data line 62A and 62B respectively.

Character line (the W that the grid of switchgear transistor 64A and 64B (control sluice) couples respectively and vertical above-mentioned set direction disposes m, W M+1), source ground.Because the electrical connection of transistor 64A and 64B is identical, therefore the annexation of transistor 64A only is discussed.The drain electrode of transistor 64A is coupled to the end 620 of data line 62A.Line program PL is coupled to the other end 622 of data line 62A, in order to program current I to be provided W
When will be when mram cell 60A writes data, this moment, the peripheral circuit of storage array be chosen line program PL and character line W m, so transistor 64A conducting, the program current I that line program PL provided WThe data line 62A that flows through, and flow to earth point via the transistor 64A of conducting.At this moment, program current I WThe magnetic field that is produced when flowing through data line 62A changes the magnetic axis direction of free magnetic axis layer 102, makes the conducting state of mram cell 60A change into low impedance state by high impedance status, or changes into high impedance status by low impedance state.At this, because under the described framework of second embodiment of the invention, program current I WThe magnetic field that is produced has been enough to change the conducting state of mram cell 60A, so bit line Bn this moment and the electric current that produces magnetic field need not be provided as first embodiment, so bit line Bn is a floating.
When reading the MRAM data, be example with mram cell 60A, this moment character line W mTurn-on transistor 64A, and according to the influence to impedance of the conducting state of mram cell 60A, by detecting bit line B nMagnitude of voltage promptly can read the stored data of mram cell 60A.
According to the described magnetic random access memory circuit of the embodiment of the invention, consult Fig. 3, if magnetic easy axis field H KBe 50e, and externally-applied magnetic field Hext be 1 (μ m)/0.5 (μ m) at the Aspect Ratio L/W of free magnetic axis layer 102, and the value M of magnetic axis vector and thickness t product is under the situation of 1.0e-4emu/cm, as magnetic easy axis field H when being 100e KDirection when being the y direction (direction along narrower section is extended), at this moment, the angle theta of magnetic axis vector M and free magnetic axis layer 102 longer sides is 85 °; As magnetic easy axis field H KDirection when being the x direction (direction along the broad cross section is extended), at this moment, the angle theta of magnetic axis vector M and free magnetic axis layer 102 longer sides is 57 °, the obvious magnetic easy axis field H that works as KDirection when the direction in broad cross section is provided with, the direction of magnetic axis vector M is easier to be changed.
In sum, according to the described reluctance type storage unit of the embodiment of the invention, its Free Electromagnetic layer easy axis direction is substantially perpendicular to its maximum cross section, therefore can reduce and switch the required externally-applied magnetic field of the whole magnetic axis direction of Free Electromagnetic layer, and required program current when reducing programming.
