“Spin-orbit-torque (SOT) devices are promising candidates for the future magnetic memory landscape, as they promise high endurance, low read disturbance, and low read error, in comparison with ...

AI is driving demand and higher prices for DRAM and NAND into 2026.  Products using non-volatile memories to replace NOR and SRAM in embedded applications are growing.

Computers often do not run as fast as they should because they are constantly transferring information between two kinds of memory: a fast, volatile memory connected to the CPU, and a slow, ...

How much energy is consumed each time we upload an image to social media, which relies on data centers and cloud storage? Data centers currently account for about 1% of global energy consumption, ...

The ability to reliably switch the direction of magnetic alignment in materials, a process known as magnetization switching, is known to be central to the functioning of most memory devices. One known ...

Magnetic random-access memory, or MRAM, uses magnetic rather than electrical charges to store data bits. While this prototype memory has so far existed only in the laboratories of IBM Corp., the ...

This article covers some more interesting content from the 2021 IEEE IEDM and the MRAM Forum that followed the IEDM. We look at some papers from the conference covering magnetic random-access memory ...

When it’s the 1950s and you are tasked to design a computer system that features not only CPU registers but also a certain amount of RAM, you do not have a lot of options. At this point in time, ...

A research team from Northwestern Engineering and the University of Messina in Italy have developed a new magnetic memory device that could lead to faster, more robust Artificial Intelligence (AI) ...
