摘要: One aspect of this description relates to a memory array. The memory array includes a plurality of N-stack pass gates, a plurality of enable lines, a plurality of NMOS stacks, a plurality of word lines, and a matrix of resistive elements. Each N-stack pass gate includes a stage-1 PMOS core device and a stage-N PMOS core device in series. Each stage-1 PMOS is coupled to a voltage supply. Each enable line drives a stack pass gate. Each N-stack selector includes a plurality of NMOS stacks. Each NMOS stack includes a stage-1 NMOS core device and a stage-N NMOS core device in series. Each stage-1 NMOS core device is coupled to a ground rail. Each word line is driving a stack selector. Each resistive element is coupled between a stack pass gate and a stack selector. Each voltage supply is greater than a breakdown voltage for each of the core devices.

摘要: Disclosed herein are related to a memory array including a set of memory cells and a set of switches to configure the set of memory cells. In one aspect, each switch is connected between a corresponding local line and a corresponding subset of memory cells. The local clines may be connected to a global line. Local lines may be metal rails, for example, local bit lines or local select lines. A global line may be a metal rail, for example, a global bit line or a global select line. A switch may be enabled or disabled to electrically couple a controller to a selected subset of memory cells through the global line. Accordingly, the set of memory cells can be configured through the global line rather than a number of metal rails to achieve area efficiency.

摘要: Systems, devices, and methods are described herein for a programmable memory array. A programmable memory system includes an array of programmable memory bit cells. A memory bit cell of the array includes a first transistor of a first type controlled by a bit line, a second transistor of a second type responsive to a word line and a second word line via a logic gate, and a third transistor of the second type responsive to the word line. The first word line is positioned substantially perpendicular to the bit line, and the second word line is positioned substantially parallel to the bit line. The word line is activated via an X portion of an address. While the second word line is activated via a Y portion of the address.
