Patent attributes
A method for operating an SRAM cell comprises, during a read operation, forward biasing an N-well of a first and second pull-up transistor, and forward biasing a P-well of a first and second pull-down transistor and a first and second access transistor. The method further comprises, during a write operation, zero or reverse biasing an N-well of a first and second pull-up transistor, and forward biasing a P-well of a first and second pull-down transistor and a first and second access transistor. The method further comprises, during an idle state, zero biasing an N-well of a first and second pull-up transistor and zero biasing a P-well of a first and second pull-down transistor and a first and second access transistor. In addition, one or more rows or columns of memory cells may receive a bias voltage.
