  • Abstract
    A 512Mb diode-switch PRAM is developed in a 90nm CMOS technology. A core configuration, read/write circuit techniques, and a charge-pump system for the diode-switch PRAM are described. Through these schemes, the PRAM achieves read throughput of 266MB/S and maximum write throughput of 4.64MB/S with a 1.8V supply.
