SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR SELECTIVELY APPLYING NEGATIVE VOLTAGE TO WORDLINES DURING MEMORY DEVICE READ OPERATION Russian patent published in 2012 - IPC G11C11/00 

Abstract RU 2450372 C2

FIELD: information technology.

SUBSTANCE: read signal is applied to a bit line connected to a memory array including a plurality of memory cells, each of the plurality of memory cells having a magnetic tunnel junction (MTJ) device; positive voltage is applied to a selected word line connected to a selected memory cell of the memory array; negative voltage is applied to unselected word lines connected to the memory array; and the negative voltage is applied to each word line during a standby state.

EFFECT: reduced stray current in magnetic random access memory.
