Techniques for a multi-step current profile for a phase change memory

Examples may include techniques to implement a SET write operation to a selected memory cell include in a memory array. Examples include selecting the memory cell that includes phase change material and applying various currents over various periods of time during a nucleation stage and a crystal gr...

Zusammenfassung:Examples may include techniques to implement a SET write operation to a selected memory cell include in a memory array. Examples include selecting the memory cell that includes phase change material and applying various currents over various periods of time during a nucleation stage and a crystal growth stage to cause the memory cell to be in a SET logical state.
