| Abstract(in English) | The combination of Voltage-Down-Convertor (VDC) and Boosted Sense Ground (BSG) scheme is suited for the low voltage (low power consumption) DRAM that is used to handheld communication tools. However, the decrease of sense speed is inevitable just to press the sense power voltage. Also, it is extremely difficult to maintain stable BSG level while securing the noise tolerance. This paper proposes a new scheme to solve these problems, called a Precharged-Capacitor-Assisted Sensing (PCAS) scheme. By adopting the scheme, proper voltage level on BLs can be generated stably with faster sense speed without losing advantages of the conventional scheme. |
