The majority of the growth comes from enterprise data center applications where the trend is to leverage the cost benefits of using MLC and TLC NAND flash memory by focusing on the use model behavior to optimize performance and life characteristics. In the data center, requirements for these MLC/TLC SSDs demand high sequential performance and reliability, moderate IOPS, and low power consumption along with maintaining 3 to 5 years of useful life. These challenges are tackled by tightening the links between the SSD's operation, host operating environment, and intrinsic NAND memory behavior and by exploiting increasingly sophisticated controllers, firmware, and flash memory error management techniques.","PeriodicalId":107437,"journal":{"name":"2015 IEEE International Memory Workshop (IMW)","volume":"125 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2015-05-17","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"133580534","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

However, as technology continuously scales down, the sensing margin (SM) of STT-MRAM is significantly degraded because of the increased process variations and reduced supply voltage. Meanwhile the critical switching current of magnetic tunnel junction (MTJ) also reduces with technology scaling. The sensing current, which should be limited to prevent read disturbance (RD) during read operations, further degrades the SM. Therefore, the readability becomes a new challenge for the deeply scaled STT-MRAM. To alleviate this problem, various sensing circuits and schemes have recently been proposed. However, it is rather difficult to achieve a good tradeoff among the sensing reliability, latency, power and hardware efficiency etc. This paper presents a dynamic reference cell (DRC) as well as a dynamic reference sensing (DRS) scheme to deal with this problem. Monte-Carlo statistical simulations have been performed to show the superiority of the proposed DRS scheme compared with conventional sensing schemes.","PeriodicalId":107437,"journal":{"name":"2015 IEEE International Memory Workshop (IMW)","volume":"32 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2015-05-17","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"134171437","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

One viable option is to intentionally slow down the A/R scaling at the penalty of irreparable weak cells that cannot guarantee target data retention time under worst-case scenarios, and compensate the weak-cell-induced memory errors at the system level. Although the availability of weak cell location information can be leveraged to maximize the weak-cell-induced error tolerance, a straightforward realization of weak cell aware error tolerance tends to suffer from significant memory access latency overhead, especially in the presence of a large number of weak cells. This paper presents a design solution that can realize weak cell aware error tolerance at very small memory access latency overhead. The key is to use a hybrid error detection/correction process to eliminate unnecessary access to the weak cell location information. We carried out extensive simulations and evaluations to demonstrate the effectiveness of this design solution and the trade-offs. Beyond theoretical analysis on the latency overhead, we further performed full-system simulations based upon a cycle-accurate x86 simulator and DRAM simulation, and implemented our design solution using an FPGA development board with on-board DRAM chips. The results successfully show that our design solution can readily handle the weak-cell-induced memory error rate of upto 10-4 ~ 10-3 at very small (even negligible) latency overhead.","PeriodicalId":107437,"journal":{"name":"2015 IEEE International Memory Workshop (IMW)","volume":"13 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2015-05-17","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"130793891","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

An oxygen anneal after HfO2 atomic layer deposition is shown to improve data retention quite significantly for 1kb arrays, while not having a deleterious effect on switching.
