A low power 6T-4C non-volatile memory using charge sharing and non-precharge techniques

This report describes a low power 6T-4C nonvolatile memory design using a bit-line non-precharge and plate-line charge-share techniques. Two proposed techniques contribute to decrease energy consumption. The bit-line non-precharge technique can reduce 73% of write energy consumption and 76% of read energy consumption. The plate-line charge-share technique can reduce 22% of store energy consumption and 11% of recall energy consumption.
