Panasonic first to release starter kit for ReRAM

Panasonic recently issued a press release reporting the first ReRAM (memresistor) test kit for microcontroller applications (link) providing the advantage of lower energy requirement than competing non-volatile memory. Based on the (Google translated) press release Panasonic's ReRAM is based on a 1T1R (1 transistor-1 resistor) tantalum oxide memory resistor. Some details on Panasonic's issued US patents relative to other companies is available at:
