Abstract
Embedded memories are increasingly becoming more important components for SoCs (system on a chip) as the silicon technology advances and SoCs get more complex. In addition, diverging SoC applications require wide range of different performance and specification for embedded memories; from very high bandwidth to ultra low power consumption. This paper overviews the trend in large scale (capacity) embedded memories and some of the challenges to meet the wide spread requirements.
