Abstract

See full text

A semiconductor device includes a flip-flop circuit, a control line, a first P-type transistor and a first non-volatile storage element, and a second P-type transistor and a second non-volatile storage element. The flip-flop circuit has a circular structure in which a first inverter circuit, a first connection line including a first node, a second inverter circuit, and a second connection line including a second node are coupled in order. The first P-type transistor and the first non-volatile storage element are coupled together in series between the first node and the control line. The second P-type transistor and the second non-volatile storage element are coupled together in series between the second node and the control line. The non-volatile storage element is a magnetic tunnel junction element including a pinned layer, a tunnel barrier layer, and a free layer arranged in order from a position close to the control line.
