The PhD thesis focuses on the always-on low power SRAM memories (essentially low
dynamic power) in thin CMOS technology node CMOS 32nm and beyond. It reviews the …

Leakage power is a growing concern in modern technology nodes. In some current and
emerging applications, speed performance is uncritical but many of these applications rely …

The SRAM 6T bit-cell suffers many limitations in advanced technology nodes among which
variability effects. Various alternatives have been experimented and the paper focuses on …

Device scaling has resulted in large scale integrated, high performance, low-power, and low
cost systems. However the move towards sub-100 nm technology nodes has increased …

Excessive leakage of cache blocks encourages forcing the cache block into low-leakage
state all the time except during read/write operations. By retaining the values of the cache …

Today, systems on Chip are always a fast growing market. They embedded more and more
complex functions that require an increasing memory capacity. The Static Random Access …

Esta dissertação visa o estudo da célula SRAM de 6 transistores, utilizando tecnologia
