Description
Technical Field
The present invention relates to semiconductor integrated circuits, and more particularly, to a memory cell structure of an SRAM; the invention also relates to an array structure of the SRAM.
Background
Currently, the read-write separation SRAM circuit is commonly used in the industry, and the conventional read-write separation SRAM circuit usually uses the memory cell of 8T2P type SRAM shown in fig. 1, where 8T indicates that there are 8 transistors in the memory cell, and 2P indicates that there are two ports (ports), i.e., a write port and a read port. As shown in fig. 1, the memory cell of the conventional 8T2P SRAM includes a write port circuit composed of select transistors 101 and 102, P-type pull- up transistors 103 and 104, and N-type pull- down transistors 105 and 106, in fig. 1, the select transistor 101 is also denoted by PG1, the select transistor 102 is also denoted by PG2, the P-type pull-up transistor 103 is also denoted by PU1, the P-type pull-up transistor 104 is also denoted by PU2, the N-type pull-down transistor 105 is also denoted by PD1, and the N-type pull-down transistor 106 is also denoted by PD 2. It can be seen that the write port circuit is a conventional 6T-SRAM memory cell. The P-type pull-up tube 103 and the N-type pull-down tube 105 form a CMOS inverter, the P-type pull-up tube 104 and the N-type pull-down tube 106 also form a CMOS inverter, the two CMOS inverters are connected end to form a latch, and the latch comprises a first storage node Q and a second storage node Qb which are mutually opposite in phase and interlocked. The sources of the P-type pull- up transistors 103 and 104 are both connected to a power supply voltage Vdd, the sources of the N-type pull- down transistors 105 and 106 are both connected to ground Vss, the gates of the selection transistors 101 and 102 are both connected to a write word line WWL, the selection transistor 101 connects and disconnects the first storage node Q and the first write bit line WBL, and the selection transistor 102 connects and disconnects the second storage node Qb and the second write bit line WBLB under the control of the write word line WWL.
The write port circuit enables a single write operation. The read port circuit in fig. 1 further includes a read port circuit for performing a separate read operation, the read port circuit in fig. 1 includes two NMOS transistors, i.e., a read select transistor 107 and a read pull-down transistor 108, respectively, in fig. 1, the read select transistor 107 is also denoted by RPG, and the read pull-down transistor 108 is also denoted by RPD. The gate of the read pull-down tube 108 is connected to the second storage node Qb, and the source is connected to Vss. The drain of the read pull-down tube 108 is connected to the source of the read select tube 107, and the drain of the select tube 107 is connected to the read bit line RBL.
In the circuit shown in FIG. 1, during a read operation, the read word line RWL is connected to a high level, such as Vdd, and the read select transistor 107 is turned on; the read bit line RBL is also connected to a high level, so that when the information stored on the second storage node Qb is different, the conduction states of the read pull-down tube 108 are different, and when the read pull-down tube 108 is conducted, the potential of the read bit line RBL is lowered; when the read pull-down tube 108 is turned off, the potential of the read bit line RBL is kept high.
During the write operation and standby, the read word line RWL is connected to a low level, such as ground Vss, and the read select transistor 107 is turned off, so that the high level on the read bit line RBL does not adversely affect the first storage node Q and the second storage node Qb. Finally, the static noise margin (SNW) and the Write Margin (WM) of the circuit can be improved. In contrast, if the read select pipe 107 is not provided when the read bit line RBL is at a high level, the high level of the read bit line RBL easily interferes with the first storage node Q and the second storage node Qb, thereby lowering SNW and WM. That is, in the conventional SRAM, two NMOS shown in fig. 1, i.e., the read select transistor 107 and the read pull-down transistor 108, must be used to obtain better SNW and WM.
In the prior art circuit shown in fig. 1, the port settings under various operations are shown in table one:
watch 1
Operation of | Port voltage setting |
Read | RBL=RWL=Vdd,WWL=Gnd,WBL=WBLB=Vdd |
Write | Vdd, inverse WBL and WBLB, Gnd, Vdd, and RBL |
Standby | WWL=RWL=Gnd,WBL=WBLB=RBL=Vdd |
In the first table, Read represents Read operation, Write represents Write operation, and Standby represents Standby;
RBL denotes a read bitline, RWL denotes a read wordline, WWL denotes a write wordline, WBL denotes a first write bitline, and WBLB denotes a second write bitline. Vdd denotes the supply voltage and the high levels in table one are all Vdd. Gnd is expressed as Vss.
With the development of technology, chip size is expected to be smaller, and 8 transistors are included in the memory cell of the SRAM shown in fig. 1, which increases the circuit area. As shown in fig. 2, is a layout of the memory cell shown in fig. 1; in fig. 2, two adjacent columns of memory cells in the same row are shown, the two memory cells are respectively outlined by dashed- line boxes 201a and 201b, and the memory cells 201a and 201b have a left-right symmetric structure. The transistors in fig. 1 are indicated in fig. 2 by corresponding dashed boxes. The layout shown in fig. 2 shows 4 levels, which are: an active region 202, a polysilicon gate 203, a contact hole 204, and a first metal layer pattern 205. In fig. 2, the same memory cell includes 5 active regions, wherein the read select transistor 107 and the read pull-down transistor 108 are formed in the same active region 202, the select transistor 101 and the N-type pull-down transistor 105 are located in the same active region 202, the P-type pull- up transistors 103 and 104 are respectively located in separate active regions, and the select transistor 102 and the N-type pull-down transistor 106 are located in the same active region 202.
Each transistor includes a polysilicon gate 203 composed of polysilicon, and source and drain regions formed in active regions on both sides of the polysilicon gate 203, and tops of the polysilicon gate 203, the source and drain regions are connected to corresponding first-layer metal layer patterns 205 through corresponding contact holes 204.
As shown in FIG. 2, the read select transistor 107 and the read pull-down transistor 108 need to occupy one active region 202 separately, which increases the circuit area. Therefore, the conventional 8T2P SRAM shown in fig. 1 is effective in improving SNM and WM as compared with the conventional 6T SRAM, but is disadvantageous in reducing the circuit area.
