Ultra-low-voltage CMOS circuit and the same for memory

摘要

A memory includes a plurality of memory cells and a plurality of peripheral circuits. Each memory cell has a first inverter and a second inverter, the first inverter is supplied by a first power supply rail and a second power supply rail, and the second inverter is supplied by a third power supply rail and a fourth power supply rail. A first voltage difference is applied across the first power supply rail and the second power supply rail, a second voltage difference is applied across the third power supply rail and the fourth power supply rail, and the first voltage difference is less than the second voltage difference. The plurality of peripheral circuits use at least one of boosted power supplies corresponding to the second voltage difference and gate-source differentially-driven circuits.
