Abstract:
A memory includes: a memory device that has a memory layer storing data as a magnetization state of a magnetic body and a magnetization fixed layer whose direction of magnetization is fixed through a nonmagnetic layer interposed between the memory layer and the magnetization fixed layer and stores the data in the memory layer by changing a magnetization direction of the memory layer when a write current flowing in a stacked direction of the memory layer and the magnetization fixed layer is applied; and a voltage control unit that supplies the write current configured by independent pulse trains of two or more to the memory device by using a write voltage that is configured by independent pulse trains of two or more.
