Abstract

A nonvolatile multilevel resistor cell based on magnetic tunnel junction (MTJ) device is proposed for process-variation-resilient logic LSIs. The proposed cell is designed by the series-parallel connection of several 'unit' MTJ devices, and its resistance value can be changed by using only one write path. Its basic behavior is simulated by using a SPICE simulator with built-in MTJ device model. The measurement result of a fabricated TEG circuit is also demonstrated.
