Abstract :
An asynchronous dual-port 1-Mb CMOS SRAM is described. The SRAM can operate at a maximum frequency of 220MHz in dual-port mode and dissipates a minimum active power of 31mW and consumes a minimum standby power of 80nW. Simulation results show that the circuit functions properly over a wide range of process, voltage & temperature (PVT) corners. SRAM was custom designed using TSMC CMOS 0.25μm 1P5M salicide process and occupies a silicon area of approximately 115mm2 (11.5mm × 10mm).
