FinFET 6T-SRAM All-Digital Compute-in-Memory for Artificial Intelligence Applications: An Overview and Analysis.

Artificial intelligence (AI) has revolutionized present-day life through automation and independent decision-making capabilities. For AI hardware implementations, the 6T-SRAM cell is a suitable candidate due to its performance edge over its counterparts. However, modern AI hardware such as neural networks (NNs) access off-chip data quite often, degrading the overall system performance.

SRAM Cell Design Challenges in Modern Deep Sub-Micron Technologies: An Overview.

Microprocessors use static random-access memory (SRAM) cells in the cache memory design. As a part of the central computing component, their performance is critical. Modern system-on-chips (SoC) escalate performance pressure because only 10-15% of the transistors accounts for logic, while the remaining transistors are for the cache memory.
