Chuck,
FRAM is destructive read on the die, from what I understand. It's just that
the onboard controller takes care of it for you, much like a core subsystem.
Thanks,
Jonathan

FRAM or MRAM. I make extensive use of them in my

Everspin has a few (all SMT and 3.3v). As I recall they run ~$20/ea for
4Mb (512K
x 8 or 256K x 16).
As neither MRAM nor FRAM requires a write-after-read refresh, I fail to
see the "realism" in this that couldn't be satisfied with simple
battery-backed RAM or even flash-backed RAM.
Yes, MRAM is magnetic, but ti's not the same principle as real core.
FWIW,
Chuck
