摘要
Memory cells made with GMR material have substantial differences in resistance for the two storage states even without sense current present. Because of the large outputs, static memory cells requiring reduced currents can be made. Also additional memory modes can be achieved because the resistance change depends on the angle between the magnetization in the two layers rather than the angle between the sense current and the magnetization.
