    Abstract: A static random-access memory (SRAM) array includes a first metal layer and a second metal layer. The metal layer includes multiple first source lines spanning multiple columns of cells. The multiple first source lines include a first source line and a second source line. The second metal layer includes multiple second source lines spanning multiple rows of cells. The SRAM array further includes a set of vias coupled to the multiple first source lines and to the multiple second source lines. A first via of the set of vias is coupled to the first source line and multiple vias of the set of vias are coupled to the second source line. Two vias of the multiple vias that are closest to the first via are each substantially the same distance from the first via.

    Abstract: A method includes storing, at a counter, a first value indicating a count of read operations in which a bit error is detected in data associated with a first address. The method further includes, in response to the first value exceeding a first threshold value, remapping the first address to a second address using a controller that is coupled to a memory array. The first address corresponds to a first element of the memory array. The second address corresponds to a second element that is included at a memory within the controller. Remapping the first address includes, in response to receiving a first read request for data located at the first address, replacing a first value read from the first element with a second value read from the second element.

    Abstract: Systems and method are directed to accessing a Dynamic Random Access Memory (DRAM) system. A DRAM controller is designed to determine that a DRAM bank of a DRAM system is in a self-refresh state and allow one or more commands to access the DRAM bank without exiting the self-refresh state. The DRAM controller may select these one or more commands, based on one or more of a clock frequency, traffic conditions related to requests for accessing the DRAM bank, or a command type. The one or more commands may include at least one of read (RD), write (WR), or precharge (PRE) commands received while the DRAM bank is in the self-refresh state.
