Statistical Analysis of Read Static Noise Margin for Near/Sub-Threshold SRAM Cell

Abstract: A fast statistical method for the analysis of the Read SNM of a 6 T SRAM cell in near/subthreshold region is proposed. The method is based on the nonlinear behavior of the cell. DIBL and body effects are thoroughly considered in the derivation of an accurate closed form solution for the Read Static Noise Margin (SNM) of the near/subthreshold SRAM cell. This method uses the state space equation to derive the Read SNM of the cell as a function of threshold voltage of cell transistors. This function shows the dep… Show more

“…However, low supply voltage design faces challenges like high delay, temperature variation and also the circuit becomes more sensitive to radiation effect as compared to the high supply voltage 6) . A further important problem is that voltage scaling 7) , which is extensively utilized in ultralow power devices like medical devices and smart grids etc 8) , reduces the speed and stability of SRAM 9) . Meanwhile, in nano-scale CMOS technologies, with the aggressive decrement in feature size of transistor, SRAMcircuit integration has attained high density with great improvement in its performance.…”
