A small bitline sensing margin is one of the most challenging design obstacles for reliable ultra-low-voltage static random access memory (SRAM) implementation. This paper presents design techniques for bitline sensing margin enhancement using decoupled SRAMs. The proposed bitline-boosting current s...
