Effect of write voltage and frequency on the reliability aspects of memristor-based RRAM

t In this paper, we report the effect of the write voltage and frequency on memristor-based resistive random access memory (RRAM). The above-said parameters have been investigated on the linear drift model of the memristor. With a variation of write voltage from 0.2 to 1.2 V and a subsequent frequency modulation from 1, 2, 4, 10, 100 and 200 Hz, the corresponding effects on memory window, low resistance state (LRS) and high resistance state (HRS) have been reported. Thus, the lifetime (s) reliability analysis of memristor-based RRAM is carried out using the above results. It is found that the HRS is independent of the write voltage, whereas LRS shows dependency on write voltage and frequency. The simulation results showcase the fact that the memristor possesses higher memory window and lifetime (s) in the higher voltage with lower frequency region, which has been attributed to less data losses in the memory architecture.
