摘要： According to one embodiment of the invention, a memory circuit operable to assume a standby mode is provided. A memory circuit includes a transistor comprising a gate and a bulk. The bulk is at a retention voltage level. The memory circuit also includes a first node and a second node that are coupled to each other by the transistor. The first node is operable to assume a higher voltage level than the second node in response to an initiation of the standby mode. The memory circuit also includes a third node coupled to the gate of the transistor. The third node is operable to assume a voltage approximately equal to the retention voltage in response to an initiation of the standby mode. The transistor is operable to reduce any direct current flow between the first node and the second node in response to a rise in voltage at the third node to a voltage approximately equal to the retention voltage.

摘要： An integrated circuit comprises a plurality of memory cells and an array supply voltage control circuit. The plurality of memory cells are organized in rows and columns. A row comprises a word line and all of the memory cells coupled to the word line. A column comprises a bit line pair and all of the memory cells coupled to the bit line pair. The array supply voltage control circuit is coupled to the plurality of memory cells. The array supply voltage control circuit is for receiving a power supply voltage and for providing a reduced power supply voltage to memory cells of a selected column during a write operation in response to a voltage differential on the bit line pair of the selected column.
