MIXED MEMORY TYPE HYBRID CACHE

摘要

A hybrid cache includes a static random access memory (SRAM) portion and a resistive random access memory portion. Cache lines of the hybrid cache are configured to include both SRAM macros and resistive random access memory macros. The hybrid cache is configured so that the SRAM macros are accessed before the resistive random memory macros in each cache access cycle. While SRAM macros are accessed, the slower resistive random access memory reach a data access ready state.
