Abstract:
According to one embodiment, a magnetic memory puts a first magnetic domain having a magnetization direction which is the same as or opposite to a magnetic domain of a first layer of a magnetic memory line, into the first layer, based on a value of data and the magnetization direction of the first layer. When receiving a first command, the magnetic memory puts a first additional magnetic domain and a second additional magnetic domain having a magnetization direction opposite to the first additional magnetic domain into the magnetic memory line. When receiving a second command, the magnetic memory read the first and second additional magnetic domains to determine the magnetization direction of the first magnetic domain.
