    Abstract: Disclosed is a memory device including a magnetic memory element. The memory device includes a memory cell array including a first region and a second region, the second region configured to store a value of a write voltage, the write voltage based on a value of a reference resistor for determining whether a programmed memory cell is in a parallel state or anti-parallel state, a voltage generator configured to generate a code value based on the value of the write voltage, and a write driver configured to drive a write current based on the code value, the write current being a current for storing data in the first region.

    Abstract: A semiconductor device comprises a first semiconductor chip comprising a first substrate. A first magnetic tunnel junction is on the first substrate. A second semiconductor chip comprises a second substrate. A second magnetic tunnel junction is on the second substrate. The second semiconductor chip is positioned on the first semiconductor chip to form a chip stack. A first critical current density required for magnetization reversal of the first magnetic tunnel junction is different than a second critical current density required for magnetization reversal of the second magnetic tunnel junction.

    Abstract: A nonvolatile memory device includes: first memory cells connected to a first source line and a first bit line; second memory cells connected to a second source line and a second bit line; and a sense amplifier circuit connected to the first and second source lines and the first and second bit lines. The sense amplifier circuit includes: a first sense amplifier configured to apply a first read voltage to the first bit line and output a first amount of current of a selected first memory cell; a second sense amplifier configured to apply a second read voltage to the second bit line and output a second amount of current of a selected second memory cell; and a comparator configured to compare the first amount of current with the second amount of current to identify data of the selected first memory cell.
