  • Abstract
    The embedded DRAM employs a transfer gate formed from a 22A Gox, 1.5V logic IO device resulting in 3.2ns cycle and latency. A concurrent refresh mode and a refresh scheduler prove ≥:99% memory availability for a 64μs cell retention time. In-macro circuitry supports redundancy allocation during 800MHz multi-banking operation.
