Described is an apparatus for memory write assist which consumes low power during write assist operation. The apparatus comprises: a power supply node; a device operable to adjust voltage on the power supply node; and a feedback unit coupled to the power supply node, the feedback unit to control the device in response to a voltage level of the voltage on the power supply node.

A static random-access memory is described. The SRAM includes a storage cell and a voltage supply to supply the storage cell with a reduced voltage during a write operation. The SRAM cell includes a first pass gate and a second pass gate. A first resistor is coupled between the first pass gate and a first side of the storage cell. A second resistor is coupled between the second pass gate and a second side of the storage cell.

Adaptive and dynamic stability enhancement for memories is described. In one example, the enhancement includes a plurality of sensors each located near a plurality of memory cells to provide a sensor voltage, a controller to receive the sensor voltage and provide a control signal based thereon, and a read/write assist circuit coupled to the controller to adjust a parameter applied to reading from and writing to a memory cell of the plurality of memory cells in response to the control signal.

Embodiments disclosed herein include forksheet transistor devices with depopulated channels. In an example, an integrated circuit structure includes a backbone. A first transistor device includes a first vertical stack of semiconductor channels adjacent to a first edge of the backbone. The first vertical stack of semiconductor channels includes first semiconductor channels and a second semiconductor channel over or beneath the first semiconductor channels. A concentration of a dopant in the first semiconductor channels is less than a concentration of the dopant in the second semiconductor channel. A second transistor device includes a second vertical stack of semiconductor channels adjacent to a second edge of the backbone opposite the first edge.

摘要:
Embodiments include apparatuses, methods, and systems related to an assist circuit that may be coupled to one or more components of a memory system to selectively lower a supply voltage that is delivered to the component. For example, the assist circuit may be coupled to a plurality of bitcells (e.g., register file bitcells). The assist circuit may selectively lower the supply voltage delivered to the bitcells during at least a portion of a write operation and/or during an inactive state of the bitcells. Additionally, or alternatively, the assist circuit may be coupled to a read circuit to selectively lower the supply voltage delivered to the read circuit during an inactive state of the read circuit. The assist circuit may include a control transistor coupled in parallel with one or more diodes between a main supply rail and a supply node of the bitcells and/or read circuit.
