چکیده

This paper describes a multi-functional deep in-memory processor for inference applications. Deep inmemory processing is achieved by embedding pitch-matched low-SNR analog processing into a standard 6T 16KB SRAM array in 65 nm CMOS. Four applications are demonstrated. The prototype achieves up to 5.6X (9.7X estimated for multi-bank scenario) energy savings with negligible (≤1%) accuracy degradation in all four applications as compared to the conventional architecture. ar X iv :1 61 0. 07 50 1v 1 [ cs .A R ] 2 4 O ct 2 01 6

A single ended 6T SRAM cell design for ultra-low-voltage applications

In this paper, we present a novel six-transistor (6T) single-ended static random access memory (SE-SRAM) cell for ultralow-voltage applications. The proposed design has a strong 2.65X worst case read static noise margin (SNM) compared to a standard 6T SRAM. A strong write-ability of logic ‘one’ is achieved, which is problematic in an SE-SRAM cell with a 36% improvement compared to standard 6T S...

A new asymmetric 6T SRAM cell with a write assist technique in 65 nm CMOS technology

A new asymmetric 6T-SRAM cell design is presented for low-voltage low-power operation under process variations. The write margin of the proposed cell is improved by the use of a new write-assist technique. Simulation results in 65 nm technology show that the proposed cell achieves the same RSNM as the asymmetric 5T-SRAM cell and 77% higher RSNM than the standard 6T-SRAM cell while it is able to...

A Novel Approach to Design of 6T (8 X 8) SRAM Cell Low Power Dissipation Using MCML Technique on 45 Nm

The most research on the power consumption of 6T SRAM has been focused on the static power dissipation and the power dissipated by the leakage current. On the other hand, as the current VLSI technology scaled down, the sub-threshold current increases which further increases the power consumption. In this paper we have proposed 6T (8 X 8) SRAM cells using MCML technology which will reduce the le...
