Write energy conservation in memory
A method writes data to a resistive memory, such as spin torque transfer magnetic random access memory (STT-MRAM). The method writes received bits of data to a memory cell array, in response to a first write signal. The method also reads stored data from the memory cell array, after the first write signal is generated, and then compares the stored data with the received bits of data to determine whether each of the received bits of data was written to the memory. In response to a second write signal, received bits of data determined not to have been written during the first write signal, are written.
