Abstract :
A low-voltage circuit technology for 1.5-V, 64-Mb DRAMs designed to achieve a reasonable speed performance projected from existing trends is described. The DRAM has been deigned using novel low-voltage circuits. An RAS access time of 50 ns has been obtained with power dissipation as low as 44 mW. These results show that a low-voltage battery-operated DRAM is a promising target for the future
