VLSI design and analysis of low power 6T SRAM cell using cadence tool

TLDR
In this paper, a technique of global bit line is used for reducing the power consumption and increasing the memory capacity of two SRAM cells for 4 Kb memory core with supply voltage 1.8 V.
Abstract
CMOS SRAM cell is very less power consuming and have less read and write time. Higher cell ratios can decrease the read and write time and improve stability. PMOS transistor with less width reduces the power consumption. This paper implements 6T SRAM cell with reduced read and write time, area and power consumption. It has been noticed often that increased memory capacity increases the bit-line parasitic capacitance which in turn slows down voltage sensing and make bit-line voltage swings energy expensive. This result in slower and more energy hungry memories.. In this paper Two SRAM cell is being designed for 4 Kb of memory core with supply voltage 1.8 V. A technique of global bit line is used for reducing the power consumption and increasing the memory capacity.
