Abstract :
With the development of microprocessor, large-storage and high-speed memories are required to keep up with it. Since the conventional simulation of memory is extremely time-consuming, a new performance model focusing on fast delay simulation of SRAM is presented in this paper. This simulation model is accurate and fast, validated by cadence simulation tool, it effectively solves the simulation difficulties of SRAMs with large storage and tremendously decreases the design cycle of SRAM, consequently, improves the design efficiency. Furthermore, we could use this simulation model to forecast the access time of large memories and get relatively good results
