摘要:
The present invention relates to a multi-port register file memory or SRAM including a plurality of storage elements and other circuitry that operate synchronously or asynchronously. The storage elements are arranged in rows and columns and store data. Two read port pairs are coupled to each of the storage elements and a differential sensing device or circuit. The read port is coupled to the storage elements in an isolated manner, enabling a plurality of cells to be arranged in such rows and columns. The sensing device is adapted to sense a small voltage swing. A column mux circuit is coupled to each column and the sensing device. Performance is not degraded unusually as the power supply voltage is reduced due to bus drop or inductive effects.

The present invention relates to a multi-port register file memory or SRAM including a plurality of storage elements and other circuitry that operate synchronously or asynchronously, and a method of making the multi-port register file memory. The storage elements are arranged in N rows and M columns and store data, each column having at least one output channel or circuit. Two read port pairs are coupled to each of the storage elements and a plurality of differential sensing devices or circuits. The read port is coupled to the storage elements in an isolated manner, enabling a plurality of cells to be arranged in such rows and columns. The sensing device is adapted to sense a small voltage swing. A column mux circuit is coupled to each column and at least one of the sensing device. The method of forming the multi-port register file memory comprises determining the number of storage elements and arranging the storage elements in the N rows and M columns, each column having an output channel. The number of read ports is determined based, at least in part, on the number of storage elements. The number of differential sensing devices is determined based, at least in part, on a number of the output channels. Performance is not degraded unusually as the power supply voltage is reduced due to bus drop or inductive effects.

The present invention relates to a method for improving speed and increasing performance in a multi-port register file memory or SRAM including at least one storage element and other circuitry that operate synchronously or asynchronously. The method comprises differentially sensing a small voltage swing in the multi-port memory using a two-stage analog-style sense amplifier including at least one trip-level-shifted inverter device.

A one-time programmable device includes a controller, a protection system, a static storage element and a latch, which can be referred to as a latch-based one-time programmable (OTP) element. In one example, the static storage element comprises a thin gate-oxide that acts as a resistance element, which, depending on whether its blown, sets the latch into one of two states.

An anti-fuse device includes a substrate and laterally spaced source and drain regions formed in the substrate. A channel is formed between the source and drain regions. A gate and gate oxide are formed on the channel and lightly doped source and drain extension regions are formed in the channel. The lightly doped source and drain regions extend across the channel from the source and the drain regions, respectively, occupying a substantial portion of the channel. Programming of the anti-fuse is performed by application of power to the gate and at least one of the source region and the drain region to break-down the gate oxide, which minimizes resistance between the gate and the channel.
