3. Simulation results and discussion
Simulation setup
We use HSPICE and 16 nm CMOS Technology Model.
We observe that the proposed cell offers 50% improvement in the mean
value of RSNM as compared with the ST-2 cell. When compared with
CHANG10T and BI12T cells, the PD12T cell gives 1.14× and 1.1×
larger value of mean RSNM.
Write ability
Write Margin technique is better than VTC SNM approach to
measure the write ability.
the two WMs for write ‘0’ and write ‘1’ are same for
differential cells.
proposed SRAM cell is second best from Ion/Ioff ratio point of view.
This is because of the use of RWLB control signal in the read path.
Minimum supply voltage (VDD, min)
The minimum supply voltage (VDD,min) of an SRAM
cell is the voltage at which HSNM and RSNM is at least
26 mV and Write Margin is positive.
where Read SNM and Hold SNM are the static noise margin
during hold and read operation. WM is the Write Margin of the
cell. Read delay is the read access time. Pleak is the average
leakage power. Pread and Pwrite are the dynamic power of the
cell during read and write operation.
proposed PD12T cell has the best EQM at all supply voltages. It
is an attractive choice considering the overall performance
along with high SNM and Qcrit at lower supply voltages.
Conclusion
This work proposed a fully half-select-free robust low-power 12T
SRAM cell that is suitable for bit-interleaved architecture.
The proposed cell achieves 18% and 26% higher Qcrit compared
with 6T and BI12T cell.
the proposed cell could be good circuit solution for ultralow voltage
moderate speed applications that demands high stability.
