| Abstract(in English) | Circuit techniques for low-power and fast SRAM macrocells were described. A low-power memory cell with a virtual-GND line whose level was controlled by column-select signals and a WE-signal was proposed. A fast write scheme with above memory cells was also mentioned. A current-mode fast sense amplifier was devised to improve its switching speed. A synchronous SRAM-macrocell test chip was designed and fabricated with 0.5-μm single-polysilicon double-metal CMOS technology. The low static-power of 360-μA/bit and 190-MHz operation at 3.3-V were demonstrated by 4K-word SRAM's. |
