Abstract
This paper presents the design and fabrication of the first subnanosecond 8 bit - Normally-off GaAs SRAM ever reported. The fabrication process based on 0.9 ¿m long recessed gate MESFET´s utilises only one active layer. Its simplicity makes it easily adaptable to much higher density circuits. The 8 bit - SRAM has yielded an access time of 0.9 ns for a corresponding power consumption (output buffer excluded) of 6.5 mW.
