Abstract

DRAM’s are essential for memory-based electronics devices and the usage of RAM is increasing day by day to reach the user's expectation the products are get designed based on low power and portable. The proposed DRAM cell has a separate read and write path for improvement in read and write abilities. Power dissipation is a major issue to solve this issue researchers are focusing on low power circuits and trying to design the circuits with less number of the transistor so that it will consume less amount of power. In this paper, three structures are presently based on MOSFET technology and CNTFET technology. MOSFET model structures are divided into two they are 1.DRAM circuit with Tri-state buffers and 2. DRAM circuit without Tri-state buffers. CNTFET based structure is built with the help of Carbon Nanotube-FET’s and the structure is the same as DRAM without Tri-state buffers. Power analysis, voltage, delay are evaluated with the help of cadence virtuoso and LT spice Tools. The proposed DRAM cell exhibits higher write and reads margins with an improvement compared to conventional cell.
