چکیده

Aggressive scaling of transistor dimensions with each technology generation has resulted an increased integration density and improved device performance at the expense of increased leakage current. Diagnosis is becoming a major concern with the rapid development of semiconductor memories. In this paper, we propose a very low cost Design-forDiagnosis (DfD) solution for design of write driver circuit and to improve access time in write operation, in which two decoders and one sense amplifier are used in each column of 10T Static Random Access Memory (SRAM) cell. In SRAM bitcells utilizing minimum sized transistors are susceptible to various random process variations. The 10T SRAM cell for low voltage and energy constrain application is analyzed with respect to power dissipation. The analyzed 10T SRAM cell is compared with low power 6T SRAM cell. The simulation result based on 32nm technology shows that 37.03% power reduction compared to 6T SRAM bit cell. A control circuitry is used to enable the both column decoder and row decoder. However, there is a marginal increment in the area due to additional components used in the proposed design without compromising with the power.
