Excerpt

In this chapter, we discuss techniques for optimizing power in memory circuits. Specifically, we focus on embedded static random access memory (SRAM). Though other memory structures such as dynamic RAM (DRAM), Flash, and Magnetoresistive RAM (MRAM) also require power optimization, embedded SRAM is definitely the workhorse for on-chip data storage owing to its robust operation, high speed, and low power consumption relative to other options. Also, SRAM is fully compatible with standard CMOS processes, whereas the other memory options are technology-based solutions that usually require special tweaks to the manufacturing process (e.g., special capacitors for embedded DRAM). …
