Abstract

Modeling of resistive RAMs (RRAMs) is a herculean task due to its non-linearity. While the exigent need for a model has motivated research groups to formulate realistic models, the diversity in RRAMs' characteristics has created a gap between model developers and model users. This paper bridges the gap by proposing an algorithm by which the parameters of a model are tuned to specific RRAMs. To this end, a physics-based compact model was chosen due to its flexibility, and the proposed algorithm was used to exactly fit the model to different RRAMs, which differed greatly in their material composition and switching behavior. Furthermore, the model was extended to simulate multiple low resistance states (LRS), which is a vital focus of research to increase memory density in RRAMs. The ability of the model to simulate the switching from a high resistance state to multiple LRS was verified by measurements on 1T-1R cells.
