About TDK Corporation
TDK Corporation is a Japanese maker of electronic components, power supplies and sensors, and it also does research in spintronics, which uses electron spin to store and process information. It has described a spin-memristor, a magnetic device whose resistance changes with its history, as a building block for neuromorphic computing, which imitates how brain cells work. TDK was founded in 1935 to make ferrite magnetic material, is headquartered in Tokyo, and is listed on the Tokyo Stock Exchange.
TDK Corporation was founded in 1935 and is based in Tokyo, Japan. It is listed under Spintronics & MRAM, Neuromorphic Computing.

What TDK Corporation works on
Spintronics & MRAM
Spintronics uses the spin of electrons, a quantum property that acts like a tiny magnet, as well as their charge to store and process information. The best-known product is MRAM, magnetoresistive random-access memory.
Neuromorphic Computing
Neuromorphic computing builds chips that copy some features of the brain. Instead of a central processor and separate memory, a neuromorphic chip has many small units that act like neurons, each with its own local memory, joined by connections that act like synapses.
