Motorola is planning to launch its innovative magnetic RAM technology in small quantity by late 2003.
Magnetic RAM, being researched by Motorola, IBM and Infineon Technologies amongst others, holds promise as a high-density non-volatile memory and potential replacement for flash memory, although concerns have been raised about the consistent manufacturability of the ultra-thin magnetic layer used within the MRAM memory cell structure.
Cell phones which currently use multiple memory types -- flash, SRAM and DRAM -- on separate die, is one area that Motorola is familiar with and which could, in theory, benefit from an innovative high-density non-volatile memory.
