Thanks to its high flexibility, the proposed emulator can be easily configured to evaluate different memory architectures. ... » read more

Ferroelectric Memories: The Middle Ground


The first article in this series considered the use of ferroelectrics to improve subthreshold swing behavior in logic transistors. The prospects for ferroelectrics in logic applications are uncertain, but ferroelectric memories have clear advantages. The two most common commercial memories lie at opposite ends of a spectrum. DRAM is fast, but requires constant power to maintain its informat... » read more
