A un,que low cost, microprocessor compatible, 0.5 pm, 5V CMOS technology utilizing an 18.4 pm2 bulk 6T cell for high density, high speed SRAMs is described. Microprocessor compatibility is ensured by improving CMOS and interconnect area efficiency. A 256K SRAM is used to demonstrate the technology.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
