Abstract :
A 16Mbit low power SRAM with 0.98mum2 cells using 0.15mum DRAM and TFT technology has been developed. A new type memory cell technology achieves enough low power, low cost and high soft error immunity without large investment. By these improved characteristics some customers at industrial machines and handy devices decided to use this new type of SRAM by compatibility with SRAM
