Abstract

PURPOSE:To intent high density integration and low power consumption by using a pair of CMOS transistors. CONSTITUTION:The voltage dependence of current flowing CMOS transistors Tr1 and Tr2 is shwon at A2 point respectively as curves I11 and I12; in the intersecting points of both curves, a2 and b2 are stable points and C2 is unstable poihnt. Memory information is stored in both a2 and b2 and ''1'' or ''0'' is decided according to stable point a2 or b2. The power consumption of this memory cell is almost 0 at both stable ponts of a2 in the Vss side and b2 in the VDD side. Namely, in the memory holding status of Tr 1 and Tr 2, either one of transistors is fully kept to be OFF. In the memory holding atatus, MOSTr for transfer gate T4 is usually shut but, in case of writing, word line WL makes Tr T4 turn ON and bit line BL makes the status of A2 point transit between a2 and b2 by applying or drawing current compulsorily. In case of reading, Tr T4 is turned ON and voltage of A2 point is detected through BL.
