INTRODUCTION:
Semiconductor memory is an electronic data storage device.
Implemented on a semiconductor-based integrated circuit.
Semiconductor memory has the property of random access,
which means that it takes the same amount of time to access
any memory location.
In a semiconductor memory chip, each bit of binary data is
stored in a tiny circuit called a memory cellconsisting of one to
several transistors.

READING & WRITING DATATO WRITE DATA
Chalcogenide is heated above its melting pointto reset state[high resistance]
Heated below its melting point for 50ns to set
state[low resistance]
TO READ DATA
Reading is done by simply measuring the
resistance change.
High resistance = set stateLow resistance = reset state

PROGRAMMING
The OUM cell is programmed by application of a current pulse at avoltage above the Switching threshold
The programming pulse drives the memory cell into a high or low
resistance state, depending on magnitude of the pulse voltage.
Information stored in the cell is read out by measurement of the
cells resistance
OUM devices are programmed by electrically altering thestructure(amorphous or crystalline) of the small volume of
chalcogenide alloy.

Non volatile OUM with fast read and write speeds, high
endurance, low voltage/low energy operation, ease of
integration and competitive cost structure is suitable for ultra
high density ,stand alone and embedded memory applications.
These attributes make OUM an attractive alternative to flash
memory technology and potentially competitive with volatile
memory technologies.
