Abstract

A memory and a read and write method of memory can prevent the magnetic random-access memory (MRAM) from being easily damaged or degraded by excessive write current during use, and increase memory integration density. The memory includes: a storage unit, comprising a storage element; a source line, electrically connected to a first end of the storage element; the memory is configured to change a storage state of the storage element by a first current and a second current, the first current flowing through the storage element and the second current flowing through the source line without flowing through the storage element.
