摘要
This work presents a new single-port 6T SRAM cell with a single-ended read operation (read-decoupled) and shows significant improvement in read stability and write-ability as compared to the conventional 6T (CON6T) SRAM cell. Unlike the CON6T cell where the pull-up transistors are powered by the supply voltage (V-DD), the proposed cell has powered these transistors by the bitline driver. Another distinct feature of the proposed design is the presence of a PMOS transistor between the two storage nodes which is used during the write operation. The design metrics of proposed stable read-decoupled 6T SRAM cell are compared with those of the CON6T SRAM cell. The proposed cell shows 4x improvement in read static noise margin (RSNM) and 8% improvement in write static noise margin (WSNM) @ 700 mV.
