  • Abstract
    For 20nm SoC products, we propose an SRAM macro with low dynamic and leakage power. This is achieved by adopting an interleave word-line and hierarchical bit-line scheme, in which minimum portions of circuits are activated when SRAM is accessed. Measured data confirms that the proposed 128kb SRAM realizes 600 mV operation, 2.1 μW/MHz active power and 82% leakage power reduction.
