Nonvolatile memory device with write error suppressed in reading data

摘要

A data write current from a pinned layer to a free layer is larger than a data write current from the free layer to the pinned layer. A data read current is smaller in value than the data write current. In the case where a difference in data read current between a high-resistance state and a low-resistance state is relatively small, a sense amplifier is connected so that the data read current flows from the pinned layer to the free layer, namely from a source line to a bit line.
