We study the voltage-driven magnetization switching in p-MTJs combining both experiment and numerical simulation. We show that the WER exhibits a local maximum at a certain pulse width as we increase the external magnetic fields. This result is well explained by taking into account transitions of magnetization between two different precession orbits. We also show that the increase of WER due to the orbit transition can be avoided by choosing a proper pulse width.
