  • Abstract
    The authors describe a subnanosecond 512×10-b bipolar ECL RAM using a 1.2-μm silicon-filled trench-isolated double-poly self-aligned bipolar technology in conjunction with a novel sense-amplifier reference circuit configuration. A 5-kb RAM with an access time of 0.85 ns at a power dissipation of 2.4 W is realized in a chip area of 3.4×4.4 mm2
