چکیده

This paper studies the device variability influence on 6T-SRAM cells in a function of the regularity level of their layout. Systematic and random variations have been analyzed when these memory circuits are implemented on a 45 nm technology node. The NBTI aging relevance on these cells has been also studied for two layout topologies and SNM has been seen as the parameter that suffers the highest impact with respect to cell aging and variability. & 2013 Elsevier Ltd.

Analysis of Leakage Current and SNM For 7T SRAM Cell in Nanometre Era

: In the microprocessors world SRAM play a vital role, but as the technology is scaling in nanometer, leakage current and leakage power both are the most known problems for SRAM cells in low power applications. More than 40% of the total power of the SRAM is waste due to the leakage through transistor. This paper compares the working, performance and results of two different SRAM topologies; a ...

Multiple-Cell-Upset Tolerant 6T SRAM Using NMOS-Centered Cell Layout

This paper presents a proposed NMOS-centered 6T SRAM cell layout that reduces a neutron-induced multiple-cell-upset (MCU) SER on a same wordline. We implemented an 1-Mb SRAM macro in a 65-nm CMOS process and irradiated neutrons as a neutron-accelerated test to evaluate the MCU SER. The proposed 6T SRAM macro improves the horizontal MCU SER by 67–98% compared with a general macro that has PMOS-c...

An Analysis of Power and Stability in 6T, NC, Asymmetric, PP, and P3SRAM Bit-Cells Topologies in 45nm CMOS Technology

In modern digital architectures, more and more emphasis has been laid on increasing the number of SRAMs in a SoC. However, with the increase in the number of SRAMs, the power requirement also increases, which is not desired. This calls for an urgent need for an SRAM with low dynamic and static power consumption and stability at the same time. The design and simulation work for 6T-SRAM, NC-SRAM,...

VIPUL BHATNAGAR et al: ANALYSIS OF SRAM BIT CELL TOPOLOGIES IN SUBMICRON CMOS

The paper investigates on the design aspects of different SRAM cells for access time, power consumption and static noise margin. All the designs are made by using standard 90nm CMOS process. Simulations have been done for 6T, 7T, 9T and 10T SRAM cells. 10T SRAM cell shows the best SNM among all the simulated cells. 9T shows least power and least access time. 6T cells stability limits the potent...
