Characterization of a Novel Nine-Transistor SRAM Cell
Zhiyu Liu,Volkan Kursun +1 more
TL;DR: A new nine-transistor (9T) SRAM cell is proposed in this paper for simultaneously reducing leakage power and enhancing data stability, which completely isolates the data from the bit lines during a read operation.
Proceedings ArticleDOI
Independent-gate and tied-gate FinFET SRAM Circuits: Design guidelines for reduced area and enhanced stability
TL;DR: Two six transistor SRAM cells based on independent-gate FinFET technology (IG-FinFET) are described in this paper for simultaneously reducing the active and standby mode power consumption while enhancing the data stability and the integration density.
Journal ArticleDOI
Leakage Power Characteristics of Dynamic Circuits in Nanometer CMOS Technologies
Zhiyu Liu,Volkan Kursun +1 more
TL;DR: Temperature-dependent subthreshold and gate-oxide leakage power characteristics of domino logic circuits under the influence of process parameter variations are evaluated and a charged dynamic-node voltage state with low inputs is preferred for reducing the total leakage power consumption in most widely used types of single- and dual-threshold voltage domino gates.
Proceedings ArticleDOI
High Read Stability and Low Leakage Cache Memory Cell
Zhiyu Liu,Volkan Kursun +1 more
TL;DR: A new nine transistor (9T) SRAM cell is proposed in this paper for simultaneously enhancing read stability and reducing leakage power consumption and read stability enhancement and leakage power reduction.
Proceedings ArticleDOI
Leakage-Aware Design of Nanometer SoC
TL;DR: New low-leakage circuit techniques based on multi-threshold-voltage and multi-oxide-thickness standard single-gate and emerging double-gate MOSFET/FinFET technologies are presented in this paper.
