Special Issue Information

Dear Colleagues,

This Special Issue will focus on circuit techniques for low power embedded memories. Nearly all embedded applications require on-chip memory, but the requirements for these embedded memories vary significantly across applications. For many embedded designs, reducing power is a key design concern. A variety of circuit approaches have emerged to meet low power needs for memory blocks.Topics of interest include, but are not limited to:

  • reducing Vmin for low power memory
  • circuits and architectures for embedded DRAM
  • alternative bit cells for low power SRAM
  • sub-threshold memory arrays
  • low power non volatile memory technologies and circuits
  • circuit assist features for low power
  • charge recycling in RAMs
  • low power periphery (sense amplifiers, decoders, etc.)
  • effects of variability on low power RAM
