摘要:
A SRAM memory cell comprising cross-coupled inverters, each cross-coupled inverter comprising a pull-up transistor, where the pull-up transistors are forward body biased during read operations. Forward body biasing improves the read stability of the memory cell. Other embodiments are described and claimed.
摘要:
For one disclosed embodiment, an apparatus comprises a first p-type device coupled between a cell voltage node and a storage node, an n-type device coupled between the storage node and a reference voltage node, and a second p-type device to couple the storage node to a bit line in response to a signal on a select line. At least one side of diffusion regions in a substrate to form both the first p-type device and the second p-type device are substantially aligned. Other embodiments are also disclosed.

摘要:
A capacitor includes a substrate (110, 210), a first electrically insulating layer (120, 220) over the substrate, and a fin (130, 231) including a semiconducting material (135) over the first electrically insulating layer. A first electrically conducting layer (140, 810) is located over the first electrically insulating layer and adjacent to the fin. A second electrically insulating layer (150, 910) is located adjacent to the first electrically conducting layer, and a second electrically conducting layer (160, 1010) is located adjacent to the second electrically insulating layer. The first and second electrically conducting layers together with the second electrically insulating layer form a metal-insulator-metal stack that greatly increases the capacitance area of the capacitor. In one embodiment the capacitor is formed using what may be referred to as a removable metal gate (RMG) approach.
