A reference current distribution method and structure thereof for MRAM devices.
An MRAM array includes current reference paths with substantially uniform length
and resistance for all current paths flowing from the global reference current
generator (GRCG) to a plurality of local current generators (LCGs), each LCG being
coupled to at least one sub-array. The conductive wire segments that couple the
LCGs to the GRCG are positioned such that all reference current path lengths from
the GRCG to each LCG are substantially the same, ensuring that the resistance of
all reference current paths is substantially the same and the amount of reference
current provided by the GRCG to the LCGs is substantially the same. An advantage
of an embodiment of present invention may be that the write margin is increased
for the MRAM chip.
