A temperature-compensation circuit technique for a dynamic random-access memory (DRAM) with an on-chip voltage limiter is evaluated using a 1-Mb BiCMOS DRAM. It was found that a BiCMOS bandgap ...

Two inventions improve DRAM’s core circuits within a 1Gb DDR3 product: (1) Scale VCC down to 0.7V but generate a Restore ONE signal 1.3V into memory cells to enhance Retention-Time at least to 138ms ...

Digital circuits such as CPUs and SoCs will gain the most from these techniques. However, FPGAs and memory devices also will achieve new highs in density thanks to scaled-down process features. In ...

Using a 2-micron process, NEC engineers fabricated low-temperature polysilicon TFTs with 100 cm2/Vs electron mobility into a 400,000-gate DRAM memory. Also integrated were peripheral circuits, ...

With embedded DRAM and tamper protection for qualified users, the Acalis CPU872 system-on-chip, a field-programmable multicore CPU, combines defenses against malicious circuits and other Trojan ...

The new memory circuits are smaller and more energy-efficient than previous generation products, and can operate at 3,600 Mbps per pin – as opposed to 3,200 Mbps for their predecessors. Samsung says ...

TOKYO — NEC Corp. and its NEC LCD Technologies unit have developed a system-on-glass display that integrates on a substrate a 230-Kbit DRAM frame memory along with display transistors and peripheral ...
