Abstract :
A method for creating a circumvention memory using existing technologies is presented. Since no single memory technology can meet all the requirements, two memory cells (CMOS and SNOS) were combined in a shadow RAM configuration. The resulting circuit has been characterized to verify that performance goals were achieved
