High-frequency low-power magnetic full-adder based on magnetic tunnel junction with spin-hall assistance

Résumé

Perpendicular-anisotropy magnetic tunnel junction (MTJ) is one of the most promising candidates to build hybrid logic-in-memory architecture, because of its nonvolatility, infinite endurance, and 3-D integration with a CMOS technology. A novel magnetic full-adder (MFA) based on this architecture is proposed, with MTJs switched by spin-Hall-assisted spin-transfer torque (STT). Owing to the assistance of spin-Hall effect (SHE), MTJ switching time can significantly be reduced, and high operation frequency can be achieved. Moreover, the endurance of oxide barrier is largely enhanced as the requirement of lower write voltage. Using an industrial CMOS 28 nm design kit and a physics-based three-terminal spin-Hall-assisted STT-MTJ model, functionality and performance of the proposed MFA have been simulated and validated. A 1 ns STT current pulse assisted by 0.35 ns SHE current pulse is sufficient to switch the MTJ configuration. When compared with the previous MFAs based on STT-MTJ, the proposed MFA achieves 38% less operation time and 31% less power consumption to perform read and write operations.
