Abstract:To speed‐up the access of bipolar RAMs, the fall‐time of the word‐line drive voltage must be reduced by the discharge circuit. Various word‐line discharge circuits have been proposed for this purpose. This paper aims at the determination of the best discharge circuit for the future high‐speed, large‐capacity RAM. Four typical conventional kinds of discharge circuits plus one each newly proposed discharge circuit for small and large capacities are applied to the same memory cell array, and the performances are … Show more
