摘要: A content addressable memory (CAM) with built-in power saving management. The CAM includes a comparator circuit region that is coupled to a match line (ML) as well as a swing line (SL). The comparator circuit region is coupled to CAM cells. The comparator region is adapted for comparing match data with stored data within the CAM cells. The ML has its ML voltage level pre-charged to a pre-charge voltage level (Vc). Additionally, the SL is pre-charged to ground. In turn, in response to a data mismatch detected by the comparator, the ML voltage level drops from Vc by a ML voltage swing (Vswing) while the SL charge shares with the Ml. Advantageously, in response to this data mismatch, the SL charge shares with the ML such that Vswing is approximately less or equal to Vc/2. That is, the charge sharing prevents the ML from discharging all the way to ground. Thus, because Vswing is as large as Vc in a conventional CAM whereas Vswing is as large as about Vc/2 in the invention, the invention's Vswing restriction provides significant more power saving.
摘要翻译: 内容可寻址存储器(CAM),内置省电管理。 CAM包括耦合到匹配线(ML)以及摆动线(SL)的比较器电路区域。 比较器电路区域耦合到CAM单元。 比较器区域适于将匹配数据与CAM单元内的存储数据进行比较。 ML具有预充电到预充电电压电平(Vc)的ML电压电平。 此外,SL预充电到地面。 反过来,响应于比较器检测到的数据不匹配,ML电压电平从Vc下降到ML电压摆幅(Vswing),而SL电荷与M1分配。 有利地,响应于该数据不匹配,SL电荷与ML共享,使得Vswing大致小于或等于Vc / 2。 也就是说,电荷共享防止了ML一路向地面放电。 因此,由于在本发明中Vswing与Vc一样大,而Vswing与Vc / 2一样大,所以本发明的Vswing限制提供了更大的功率节省。

摘要: A ternary state content addressable memory (CAM) cell that includes two DRAM cells. In addition to a port for controlling and transmitting data to the CAM, another port is exclusively used for refreshing the DRAM cells. A refresh word line is coupled to the two DRAM cells for performing DRAW cell refresh. A refresh bit line is coupled to the first of the two DRAM cells for refreshing this first DRAM cell. A refresh bit line is coupled to the second of the two DRAM cells for refreshing this second DRAM cell. Problematic power consumption and voltage swing found in a conventional CAM are overcome in the CAM. A swing line (SL) is coupled to said first and second DRAM cells and a local match line (LML) of said CAM cell, said SL having an adjustable voltage level for changing voltage swing in said LML to regulate trade-off between power consumption and speed of said CAM cell.

摘要: A word line stitch mechanism to be used in high-density DRAMs is presented herein. The word line stitch mechanism of the present invention eliminates the problem caused by using the conventional word line stitch methods of the prior art in the high-density DRAMs. In the present invention, the word lines are segmented with an space between the two adjacent word line segments. Thereafter, the contacts between the word line segments and the associated metal layers are established such that the contact overlap areas are completely adjacent to all or a portion of the spaces between the word line segments of the adjacent word lines.
