  • Timing Circuit Design in High Performance DRAM
    Chapter 11 Timing Circuit Design in High Performance DRAM Feng (Dan) Lin Abstract The need for high performance dynamic random access memory (DRAM) becomes a pressing concern with processor speeds racing into the multi-gigahertz range. For a high performance computing system, such as high-end graphics cards or game consoles, memory bandwidth is one of the key limitations. One way to address this ever increasing bandwidth requirement is by increasing the data transfer rate. As the I/O speed jumps up, precise timing control becomes critical and challenge with variations and limitations in nano-scaled DRAM processes. In this chapter, we will explore two most important timing circuits used in high performance DRAM: clock distribution network (CDN) and clock synchronization circuits (CSC). Keywords Memory interface • DRAM • Memory bandwidth • Clock distribu- tion network (CDN) • Clock synchronization circuit (CSC) • Source-synchronous • Analog phase generator (APG) • De-skewing • Duty-cycle correction (DCC) Delay-locked loop (DLL) • 3D integration 11.1 Introduction 11.1.1 Memory Interface A typical memory system, shown in Fig. 11.1, generally includes a memory control- ler, DRAM devices and memory channels between them. As part of the DRAM device, memory interface serves as a gateway between the external world and internal periphery logics (i.e. array interface and command and address logic). The state-of-art memory interface may include data transceivers, SERDES (serializer/deserializer), F. Lin (*) Senior Member of Technical Staff, Micron Technology, Inc. e-mail: [email protected] K.

  • Session 27 Overview DRAM and Eram
    ISSCC 2007 / SESSION 27 / DRAM AND eRAM / OVERVIEW Session 27 Overview DRAM and eRAM Chair: Martin Brox, Qimonda, Neubiberg, Germany Associate Chair: Kazuhiko Kajigaya, Elpida Memory, Sagamihara, Japan Demand growth for electronic systems has been driven by new consumer and computing applica- tions. The most popular examples are the next-generation, high-resolution game-consoles. These systems heavily leverage the performance of today’s memories and processors. Yet, these applica- tions are still unable to create a life-like experience due to the limitations of the on- and off-chip memory bandwidth available to the processing functions. Careful optimization of the memory hier- archy bandwidth is necessary to improve system performance. High-speed embedded-DRAM (eDRAM) has evolved as a serious contender to embedded-SRAM (eSRAM), while external data- rates continue their rapid rise. However, speed improvements cannot stand on their own as system costs must be kept reasonable. To this end, good test and repair solutions reduce cost and facilitate higher levels of integra- tion. The presentations in this session report recent advances that address these challenges. Paper 27.1 by IBM introduces an innovative sense-amplifier for use in an eDRAM macro operating at a random-cycle frequen- cy of 500MHz. This macro, which occupies only 32% of an equivalent eSRAM-macro in the same SOI-technology, enables higher-density cache implementations improving system level performance. Cost, test strategy and system integration are the focus of the next two presentations. Paper 27.2 by Renesas, Shikino and Daioh, explores strategies needed for known-good-die (KGD) applications with the example of an eSRAM-macro.
