SRAM CELL PARAMETER OPTIMIZATION

摘要

An integrated circuit having an SRAM cell includes a pair of cross-coupled inverters with first driver and load transistors connected to provide a first storage node and second driver and load transistors connected to provide a second storage node. The SRAM cell also includes first and second pass gate transistors controlled by at least one word line and respectively connected between a first bit line and the first storage node and a second bit line and the second storage node; wherein a first driver transistor threshold voltage is different than a second driver transistor threshold voltage and one of the first and second driver threshold voltages is different than a pass gate transistor threshold voltage. Alternately, a threshold voltage of the first and second driver transistors is different than a symmetrical pass gate transistor threshold voltage. Additionally, methods of manufacturing an integrated circuit having an SRAM cell are provided.
