STT-MRAM and How it Works STT = Spin-Torque-Transfer Use current to flip free layer between two resistive states

Compact Model Requirments Bias Voltage Temperature Probabilistic Switching Regions of Operation

[1] J. D. Harms, et al. (U. Minnesota) Switching time vs. current fitting. User defined delay for switching. SPICE.

[2] A. Nigam, et al. (UVA & Grandis) Calculate the total transmission probability and density of available states (implemented in SPICE). Accuracy: ±10% RP, RAP, TMR Physics based… I think… Measured Model

[3] L.-B. Faber, et al. (U. Paris XI) Model switching probabilities across several parameters. Switching based on user defined threshold and delay. Inaccurate below 10ns pulse widths. Switching Probabilities Spectre Model

[4] A. Raychowdhury, (Intel) Uses a linearized LLGE, modified/fitted for thermally activated switching. Crude bias voltage approximation. Semi- physics, semi-empirical.

[5] D. Datta, et al. (Purdue & UCB) Uses a Non-Equilibrium Green’s Function (NEGF) based quantum transport model. (Physics Based) Voltage Bias Out of Plain Fields

[6] M. Madec, et al. (ULP) Traditional LLGE model for precessional switching. Modified Jullière conductance model to include bias voltage dependencies. Thermally activated switching not considered. VHDL-AMS implementation.

Limitations of Current Models Few model bias voltage dependencies. No published model incorporates temperature effects. Empirical models cannot predict behavior. Most physics models are too cumbersome for compact modeling. Most models are ill-suited for incorporating statistical variation.
