Abstract
An application that takes advantage of FeRAM characteristics is replacing current DRAM, which then becomes high-performance nonvolatile RAM cache. This improves system performance for many kinds of computer systems, including mobile PCs, cellular phones, digital video products, and storage systems such as SSDs. However, the highest capacity in nonvolatile RAMs that allow frequent cache reads and writes is limited to 64Mb [1,2]. The maximum read bandwidth is limited to 400MB/s [3] and the write bandwidth is limited to 200MB/s [1] in nonvolatile memories reported to date.
