A method is provided for writing data to an MRAM device having a plurality of magnetic memory cells configured in an array between a plurality of word lines and bit lines. At least one of the magnetic memory cells includes at least one fixed magnetic layer and a plurality of free magnetic layers, separated from the fixed magnetic layer by at least one barrier layer. The free magnetic layers include a first free magnetic layer adjacent to the barrier layer, a second free magnetic layer separated from the first free magnetic layer by at least one spacer layer, and a third free magnetic layer separated from the second free magnetic layer by at least one anti-parallel coupling layer. A magnetic moment of the first free magnetic is greater than both a magnetic moment of the second free magnetic layer and a magnetic moment of the third free magnetic layer.
