We report the electrical properties of a full-bit functional 8 Mbit one transitor-one capacitor (1T-1C) embedded ferroelectric random access memory (eFRAM) fabricated within a low-leakage 130 nm 5 lm Cu interconnect complementary metal oxide semiconductor (CMOS) logic process. To increase manufacturability and reliability margins, we have introduced a single-bit substitution methodology that replaces bits at the low-end of the original distribution with redundant elements leading to an increased signal margin. Further, we have fabricated a digital signal processor (DSP) using the eFRAM process flow and have shown that the operating frequency is nearly the same relative to the CMOS baseline. With the development of logiccompatible eFRAM, we have created a technology platform that enables ultra-low-power devices.
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.
