Abstract

See full text

A memory array including: a first volatile memory cell including first and second cross-coupled inverters between first and second storage nodes; a first non-volatile memory cell including at least one resistive element that can be programmed to take one of at least two resistive states; and a control circuit adapted to couple the first non-volatile memory cell to the first and second storage nodes in order to generate a current for programming the resistive state of the at least one resistive element.
