A four-transistor SRAM cell, which could be viewed as at least including two word line terminals, comprises the following elements: a first word line terminal, a second word line terminal, a first bit line terminal, a second bit line terminal, a first transistor, a second transistor, a third transistor, and a fourth transistor. The gate of the first transistor is coupled to the first word line terminal and the source of the first transistor is coupled to the first bit line terminal, the gate of the second transistor is coupled to the second word line terminal and the source of the second transistor is coupled to the second bit line terminal, the source of the third transistor is coupled to the drain of the first transistor and the gate of the third transistor is coupled to the drain of the second transistor, the source of the fourth transistor is coupled to the drain of the second transistor and the gate of the fourth transistor is coupled to the drain of the first transistor. Significantly, one essential characteristic of the memory cell is that two word line terminals are used to control the state of two independent transistors separately.
