Problems solved by technology

Under long-term high-frequency work, the negative bias between the gate and source of MP1 will cause NBTI effect, and the performance of MP1 will be degraded, causing the falling edge of ICLK to slow down, and the internal work of the circuit cannot be completed in time. On the one hand, clock frequency, read and write speed will therefore decrease, on the other hand, it will cause an increase in circuit power consumption

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of embedded memory, and relates to a recovery circuit for improving the temperature instability of negative bias voltage of an embedded memory clock input circuit. Background technique [0002] Advances in modern semiconductor technology have brought about reductions in transistor size and supply voltage. However, after the process reaches 65nm, process deviations caused by random doping can have a bad impact on circuit performance. At the same time, in order to meet the requirements of modern high-performance electronic systems, the integration level of embedded memory is getting higher and higher, and the operating frequency is also increasing, and the highest has reached several gigahertz (GHz), which is very important for transistors. high reliability requirements. In traditional circuit design, designers assume that the electrical and physical characteristics of transistors are deterministic and predi...
