DRAM circuit design

de Brent Keeth, R. Jacob Baker

"DRAM chips contain both analog and digital circuits, requiring a variety of skills and techniques to accomplish a superior design. This easy-to-read tutorial covers transistor-level design of DRAM building blocks, including the array and architecture, voltage regulators and pumps, and peripheral circuits. DRAM Circuit Design will help the IC designer prepare for the future in which DRAM will be embedded in logic devices for complete systems on a chip.". "Topics covered include: DRAM array; peripheral circuitry; global circuitry and considerations; voltage converters; and synchronization in DRAMs." "DRAM Circuit Design is an invaluable introduction for students, academics, and practitioners with a background in electrical and computer engineering. Applications engineers and practicing IC designers will develop a better understanding of the important facets of DRAM device structure across the board."--BOOK JACKET.
