  • Publication number: 20230395141
    Abstract: A low-power static random access memory (SRAM) is set forth which includes a cache memory function without requiring a special bit cell, and which realizes robust read and write operation without any write assist circuit at 16 nm or below FinFET technology. The SRAM comprises a half-Vdd precharge 6 T SRAM cell array for robust operation at low supply voltage at 16 nm or below, and with cacheable dynamic flip-flop based differential amplifier referred to as a main amplifier (MA). Prior art 6 T SRAM cell arrays use Vdd or Vdd-Vth precharge schemes, and have separate read and write amplifiers. The SRAM set forth uses one main amplifier only, which is connected to the bit line (BL) through a transmission gate. The main amplifiers functions as a read amplifier, write amplifier, and a cache memory.
