Abstract: A static random access memory wherein all cells have p-channel access transistors, p-channel driver transistors, and n-channel loads. The access transistors have a width to length ratio which is greater than the width to length ratio of the driver transistors.The bit lines are precharged close to VSS, and the wordlines are held near VCC in the off state. Thus the operating signals in the array of the SRAM of the present invention are opposite to those in SRAMs of the prior art.
