May 30, 2014 - Dr. Shimeng Yu from Arizona State University visited CECA and gave a talk on "Resistive Radom Access Memory (RRAM) Tutorial".
Abstract: RRAM technology has made significant progresses in the past few years as a competitive candidate for the next generation non-volatile memory. In this talk, I will give an introduction to RRAM technology. First, I will discuss the physical mechanism of RRAM devices. Then, I will discuss the performance metrics that evaluate the RRAM characteristics for memory applications. And then, I will introduce some recent progress of the array-level integration and macro chip design of RRAM by various companies. Finally, I will give an outlook on the future trend of RRAM technology – the monolithic 3D integration of RRAM for ultra-high density storage application.
