MAGNETIC DEVICE FOR PERFORMING A LOGIC FUNCTION

摘要

A device for performing a“logic function”including a magnetic structure including at least one first magnetoresistive stack including a first ferromagnetic layer and a second ferromagnetic layer separated by a non-ferromagnetic interlayer, the ferromagnetic hard layer being pinned in a fixed magnetic state which serves as a reference and at least one first and one second current line belonging to a first and a second level of metallization respectively, each of the two lines generating a magnetic field in the vicinity of the first stack when a current flows therethrough. The first and second lines are disposed at various distances of the second ferromagnetic layer, the various distances being determined by the“logic function”.
