Abstract

A method of writing a magneto-resistive random access memory (MRAM) cell includes providing a writing pulse to write a value to the MRAM cell; and verifying a status of the MRAM cell immediately after the step of providing the first writing pulse. In the event of a write failure, the value is rewritten into the MRAM cell.
