28nm FDSOI technology sub-0.6V SRAM Vmin assessment for ultra low voltage applications
Vmin measurements in 28nm FDSOI technology on 128Mb SRAM bitcells from -40°C to 125°C are reported in this paper. Adding the silicon ageing behavior and the process variability, we have developed a complete model and demonstrated end-of-life SRAM Vmin of 0.6V and 0.5V on 20Mb with 0.120μm2 and 0.152μm2 bitcells, respectively. This is the first report of a such extensive SRAM Vmin assessment at the 28nm node. The construction of write limited bitcells, combined with write assist design technique, was found to be the most efficient way to achieve ultra low Vmin in 28nm FDSOI technology. In addition, Vmin retention below 0.4V is demonstrated in 0.120μm2 bitcells, leading to the enablement of ultra-low leakage bitcells with 2pA/cell in retention mode.
