STT-RAM also has the advantages of lower power consumption and better scalability than conventional magnetoresistive random-access memory (MRAM) which uses magnetic fields to flip the active elements.
[4] Hynix Semiconductor and Grandis formed a partnership in April 2008 to explore commercial development of STT-RAM technology.
[8] In 2011, Qualcomm presented a 1 Mbit Embedded STT-MRAM, manufactured in TSMC's 45 nm LP technology at the Symposium on VLSI Circuits.
In 2012 Everspin Technologies released the first commercially available DDR3 dual in-line memory module ST-MRAM which has a capacity of 64 Mb.
[10] In June 2019 Everspin Technologies started pilot production for 28 nm 1 Gb STT-MRAM chips.
