Abstract: A circuit arrangement for storage of information in a storage cell of the CBRAM-type, in which the storage cell (CBJ) can be connected to a constant current source (IWR). The connection of the storage cell (CBJ) to the constant current source (IWR) is carried out via a write transistor (TRWR) and the write transistor and constant current source are arranged in a symmetrical current circuit.

Abstract: An integrated magnetoresistive semiconductor memory system, in which n memory cells that contain two magnetic layers each separated by a thin dielectric barrier, and associated word lines and bit lines that cross one another are vertically stacked in n layers. The system further contains a decoding circuit for selecting one of the n memory layers. The decoding circuit, on both ends of a word line or a bit line, is provided with one configuration each that contains n layer selecting transistors for selecting one of the n memory layers, and with a line selection transistor for selecting the respective horizontal word line or bit line on which a voltage is to be impressed.

Abstract: The present invention provides a test mode section for facilitating a worst case product test sequence for signal margin to ensure full product functionality over the entire component lifetime taking all aging effects into account. A semiconductor memory test mode configuration includes a first capacitor for storing digital data The capacitor connects a cell plate line to a first bit line through a first select transistor. The first select transistor is activated through a connection to a word line. A second capacitor stores digital data and connects the cell plate line to a second bit line through a second select transistor. The second select transistor is also activated through a connection to the word line. A sense amplifier is connected to the first and second bit lines and measures a differential read signal on the first and second bit lines. A potential is connected to the first bit line through a third transistor and changes a pre-charge signal level on the first bit line when the third transistor is turned on to reduce the differential read signal.

Abstract: The integrated memory has m>1 bit lines that are connected to an input of a read-write amplifier via a switching element. Only one switching element is conductively connected for each read or write access. The memory is provided with a switching unit that influences read or write access occurring by way of the read-write amplifier and bit lines. The circuit unit is provided with an activation input. A column-end decoder has a first decoder stage and m second decoder stages. The outputs of the second decoder stages are connected to a control input for each of the switching elements. The output of the first decoder stage is connected to the activation input of the switching unit.

Abstract: The arrangement has memory cells in a field in at least one plane at intersection points between word or programming lines and bit lines. Providing programming currents to word and bit lines corresponding to a selected cell causes stray magnetic fields in adjacent cells. The method involves feeding a compensation current to the adjacent cell word, programming, bit or special line to produce a compensation magnetic field countering the stray field. The MRAM arrangement has memory cells (11-13) in a memory cell field in at least one plane at intersection points between word lines (WL1) or programming lines and bit lines (BL1-BL3). Providing programming currents to word and bit lines corresponding to a selected cell causes stray magnetic fields in adjacent cells. The method involves feeding a compensation current to the word line or programming line or bit line or a special line of the adjacent cell(s) to produce a compensation magnetic field countering the stray field.

Abstract: A chain-FRAM (CFRAM) includes a read-amplifier with bit-lines (BLt) connected to it, word-lines (WL) connected to the gates of selection transistors, a plate line (PLt) connected to the ends of the blocks of cells (Z) opposite the block-select transistors (BSt), complementary bit-lines (BLc) connected to the read-amplifier (SA), and complementary word-lines, complementary selection transistors, and complementary plate-lines (PLt). The bit-lines and the complementary bit-lines, and the memory cells (Z) and complementary memory cells connected to them, are arranged into two different memory cell matrices/fields (8,9), and the bit-line and the complementary bit-lines specifically extend in mutually opposite directions.

Abstract: A main reference bit line is connected to a reference voltage via a charge switching element such as a p-channel transistor. At least one further reference bit line is connected to the main reference bit line via a compensation switching element for equalising the charge between the reference bit lines. The reference voltage is provided from a reference voltage source. The main reference bit line is connected to three further reference bit lines via three compensation switching elements for charge equalisation. The compensation switching elements may be connected in series. A method of generating a reference voltage on reference bit lines is also claimed.
