  • Patent number: 8264896
    Abstract: An integrated circuit comprises a plurality of memory cells and an array supply voltage control circuit. The plurality of memory cells are organized in rows and columns. A row comprises a word line and all of the memory cells coupled to the word line. A column comprises a bit line pair and all of the memory cells coupled to the bit line pair. The array supply voltage control circuit is coupled to the plurality of memory cells. The array supply voltage control circuit is for receiving a power supply voltage and for providing a reduced power supply voltage to memory cells of a selected column during a write operation in response to a voltage differential on the bit line pair of the selected column.

  • Patent number: 6956398
    Abstract: The method for powering down a circuit for a data retention mode includes: changing a supply voltage node from an active power voltage level to an inactive power level; coupling a source of a P channel device to the supply voltage node; providing a retaining power supply voltage level to a back gate of the P channel device; changing a drain voltage of the P channel device to a reference voltage level, wherein the reference voltage level is different from the retaining power supply voltage level; and changing a gate voltage of the P channel device to the reference voltage level.

  • Patent number: 6731564
    Abstract: According to one embodiment of the invention, a memory circuit operable to assume a standby mode is provided. A memory circuit includes a transistor comprising a gate and a bulk. The bulk is at a retention voltage level. The memory circuit also includes a first node and a second node that are coupled to each other by the transistor. The first node is operable to assume a higher voltage level than the second node in response to an initiation of the standby mode. The memory circuit also includes a third node coupled to the gate of the transistor. The third node is operable to assume a voltage approximately equal to the retention voltage in response to an initiation of the standby mode. The transistor is operable to reduce any direct current flow between the first node and the second node in response to a rise in voltage at the third node to a voltage approximately equal to the retention voltage.
