Abstract:
1. A non-volatile random access memory device, comprising: a) a magnetic bit having a first end and a second end; b) a write/sense coil proximate the magnetic bit and not in electrical communication with the magnetic bit; c) a read pulse module in electrical communication with the magnetic bit at the first end and at the second end and configured to send a read pulse signal to the magnetic bit; d) a write module in electrical communication with the write/sense coil and configured to thereby change the magnetic bit between a first magnetic polarity state and a second magnetic polarity state; e) a read module in sensory communication with the write/sense coil and configured to detect a first electrical characteristic of the write/sense coil when a read pulse signal is delivered to the magnetic bit in the first magnetic polarity state and to detect a second electrical characteristic of the write/sense coil when a read pulse signal is delivered to the magnetic bit in the second magnetic polarity state.
