NON-VOLATILE SHADOW LATCH USING A NANOTUBE SWITCH

摘要

A non- volatile memory cell includes a volatile storage device that stores a corresponding logic state in response to electrical stimulus; and a shadow memory device coupled to the volatile storage device. The shadow memory device receives and stores the corresponding logic state in response to electrical stimulus. The shadow memory device includes a non- volatile nanotube switch that stores the corresponding state of the shadow device.
