    Abstract: A method and system for DRAM refresh wherein the refresh rate is proportional to the current leakage of one or more sampling cells. The sampling cells selected are representative of the nominal leakage condition of the DRAM array and track the DRAM cell leakage rates, which are dependent upon manufacturing process variations, application influences, voltage variations and the temperature of the system, both locally and globally. As the current leakage through the DRAM increases, the refresh cycle repetition frequency increases and accordingly decreases for low leakage conditions. By adjusting the refresh rate in the manner described by the invention disclosed herein, the semiconductor conserves power by reducing unnecessary refresh cycles, generates the required delay between cycles without undue power consumption and provides a cost effective means that does not require external settings and calibration to optimize the refresh rate for the variations heretofore mentioned.

    Abstract: Circuits and methods for transmitting and receiving small swing differential voltage data to and from a memory are described. A plurality of memory cells is formed in arrays within a plurality of memory banks. Each memory bank is coupled to a pair of small swing differential voltage global bit lines that extend across the memory. A small signal write driver circuit is coupled to the global bit lines and configured to output a small signal differential voltage on the global bit lines during write cycles. A global sense amplifier is coupled to the global bit line pairs and configured to output a full swing voltage on a data line during a read cycle. Methods for providing small swing global bit line signals to memory cells are disclosed. The use of small swing differential voltage signals across the memory reduces power consumption and shortens memory cycle time.
