The NEC Group focuses on two core areas of business: integrated IT / network solutions and semiconductor.
NEC has been developing MRAM technologies for a long time, collaborating with both TMSC and Toshiba. NEC are also working on perpendicular MRAM. NEC planned to commercialize pMTJ-based MRAM chips by 2010, but that plan did not materialize, and it is not clear if NEC still develops MRAM technologies.
EverSpin was spun-off from Freescale in 2008 to handle its MRAM business. Since 2008 Everspin shipped more than 60 million MRAM Chips (discrete and embedded) into data centers, cloud storage, energy, industrial, automotive, consumer, and transportation markets.
Everspin currently produces MRAM and STT-MRAM chips ranging from 128K to 256Mbit, and will soon launch 1 Gbit STT-MRAM chips. Everspin offers Toggle-MRAM, STT-MRAM and pMTJ STT-MRAM chips.
Intel is the world largest chip maker, and also manufactures networking, memory and communications products.
Intel is researching several next-generation memory technologies including MRAM memory. Over the years it has demonstrated several MRAM technologies.
Samsung is a large Korean conglomerate focusing on electronics, displays (both LCDs and OLEDs) and semiconductors. Samsung is a leading memory producer and is researching several next-generation memory technologies, including RRAM and MRAM.
Samsung collaborates with several companies on STT-MRAM technologies, including Hynix and IBM. In April 2016 Samsung's semiconductor unit manager said that Samsung will be ready with MRAM chips soon.
Honeywell International is a diversified technology and manufacturing company, serving customers worldwide with aerospace products and services; control technologies for buildings, homes and industry; automotive products; turbochargers; and specialty materials.
Honeywell is producing and offering MRAM chips, up to 64Mbit. Honewell licensed its MRAM technology from NVE. Honeywell's MRAM devices were designed from the ground-up for the radiation and space environments.
Renesas, established in 2003 by Mitsubishi and Hitachi, develops and manufactures system LSIs and memory products.
Renesas is developing MRAM technologies. In 2024, it announced that it has developed new STT-MRAM circuit technology, achieves the world's fastest random access speed.
Infineon designs, develops, manufactures and markets a broad range of semiconductors and complete system solutions targeted at selected industries.
Infineon develops MRAM technologies in collaboration with IBM.
