Abstract(in English) In the comparison study of the realization technique of a bank type multi-port memory, in many cases chip area comparison is performed on limited range of parameter. This is because in order to measure chip area, we need many layouts based on a different parameter, and we need much time in order to design all the required layouts. Although there is also research of the area estimation based on equations, but including consideration of operation speed in it is difficult. So in this research the memory generator was created in order to enable the area estimation of the crossbar memory on the consideration of operation speed when the number of banks, the number of ports, data width, and address width differ. In the created memory generator, the automatic generation of the crossbar memory based on the HITACHI0.18μm CMOS process can be done. When the layout generated by the memory generator is compared with the manual designed layout with four ports, 32 banks, data width of I bit, and an address width of 15 bits, it turns out that an area increase was only 9%. Furthermore from the results, in proportion with the increase of data width and address width the estimated area increase decreases.
