Abstract(in Japanese) (See Japanese page)
Abstract(in English) The post fabrication technique for self-improvement of SRAM cell stability is validated by experiment using 1k DMA SRAM TEG array. It is shown that the stability of unbalance cells is automatically improved by merely applying stress voltage to V_
terminal. The mechanism of the phenomena is also analyzed by measuring V_
of all transistors before and after stress and it is newly found that |V_| of the weaker PFET connected to the LOW node in the cell is selectively lowered by the self-improve mechanism and this |V_| shift largely contributes to the self-improvement.
