Reductions in CMOS SRAM cell static noise margin (SNM) due to intrinsic threshold voltage fluctuations in uniformly doped minimum-geometry cell MOSFETs are investigated for the first time using compact physical and stochastic models. Six sigma deviations in SNM due to intrinsic fluctuations alone are projected to exceed the nominal SMM for sub-100-nm CMOS technology generations. These large deviations pose severe barriers to scaling of supply voltage, channel length, and transistor count for conventional 6T SRAM-dominated CMOS ASICs and microprocessors
