Abstract:
A method of fabricating a Magnetic Random Access Memory (MRAM) comprising:forming an array of magneto-resistive bits such that the magneto-resistive bits are arranged in columns and rows, where a major axis of a magneto-resistive bit is offset from a row and is offset from a column to which it corresponds, and where the major axis of the magneto-resistive bit is parallel to major axes of magneto-resistive bits of adjacent columns and rows; forming a plurality of word lines such that a word line is adjacent a column of magneto-resistive bits; forming a plurality of digital lines such that a digital line is adjacent a row of magneto-resistive bits; and forming a plurality of sense lines, where a sense line electrically connects magneto-resistive bits of a row.
