Abstract
A memory device includes a volatile memory cell, a non-volatile memory cell, and a transfer system connected between the volatile memory cell and the non-volatile memory cell. The transfer circuit allows data transfer from the volatile memory cell to the non-volatile memory cell when the memory device is operating in a first mode, and from the non-volatile memory cell to the volatile memory cell when the memory device is operating in a second mode.
