The Storage Networking Industry Association (SNIA) has launched a Magnetoresistive Random-Access Memory (MRAM) Special Interest Group (SIG) to foster MRAM adoption. This group aims to standardize MRAM technologies and develop new interfaces to make implementation easier, particularly for AI, automotive, and data center applications. The SIG is collaborating with the IEEE Standards Association to address concerns about magnetic field sensitivity and is working towards JEDEC standards that would allow MRAM to function seamlessly with existing memory interfaces like LPDDR and CXL, potentially enabling MRAM to replace or augment traditional memory types such as SRAM and DRAM in various architectures, including chiplets.
