Abstract

The invention discloses a low-voltage operation storage unit circuit of an SRAM (Static Random Access Memory), employing a dual-port structure with one reading-writing port, and comprising 2 PMOS (P-channel Metal Oxide Semiconductor) tubes MP1 and MP2, 6 NMOS (N-channel Metal Oxide Semiconductor) tubes MN1-MN6, and two control ports cont and Colum. In the case of ensuring right reading and writing, the storage unit circuit provided by the invention can work at low voltage near a sub-threshold, so that the power consumption is reduced; compared with a conventional storage unit circuit with one reading-writing port, the 8T storage unit circuit of the invention can employ a CMUX structure, and therefore the power consumption of the whole SRAM is reduced.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of integrated circuits, relates to the technology of reducing unit power consumption, and is a storage unit circuit of SRAM with low voltage operation. Background technique [0002] At present, from electronic products to Internet shared servers, and network equipment, controlling power consumption has become the main limitation of adding functions, and power supply voltage is an important factor determining power consumption, and the biggest obstacle to the reduction of power supply voltage is embedded SRAM The minimum operating voltage of the module. [0003] The memory cell array circuit is an important part of SRAM, and it is often the bottleneck of power consumption in system design. The continuous improvement of the market's demand for various portable devices also puts forward higher requirements for the power consumption reduction technology of memory cell arrays. . In the new generation of integra...
