US Patent 11675500 High capacity memory circuit with low effective latency

A first circuit formed on a first semiconductor substrate is wafer-bonded to a second circuit formed on a second memory circuit, wherein the first circuit includes quasi-volatile or non-volatile memory circuits and wherein the second memory circuit includes fast memory circuits that have lower read latencies than the quasi-volatile or non-volatile memory circuits, as well as logic circuits. The volatile and non-volatile memory circuits may include static random-access memory (SRAM) circuits, dynamic random-access memory (DRAM) circuits, embedded DRAM (eDRAM) circuits, magnetic random-access memory (MRAM) circuits, embedded MRAM (eMRAM), or any suitable combination of these circuits.
