The CMOS inverter can be used as an amplifier if properly biased in the transition region of
its voltage‐transfer characteristics (VTC). In this paper, the design of this amplifier is …

It is well known that the dynamic random-access memory (DRAM) is one of the main means
for primary storage. However, the conventional readout scheme of the one-transistor one …

Comparators are very important circuits that can be found in a variety of applications,
especially comparators whose reference level can be controlled. In this paper, a voltage …

The conventional readout of one-transistor–one-capacitor dynamic random-access
memories (1T–1C DRAMs) depends on using a sense amplifier to develop the bitline …

As well known by computer architects, the performance gap between the processor and the
memory has been increasing over the years. This causes what is known as the memory wall …

In this paper, a novel readout scheme for the one-transistor one capacitor (1T-1C) DRAM
will be introduced. The scheme depends on charging the bitline as well as the cell-storage …

Memory plays an essential role in the design of electronic systems where storage of data is
required. DRAMs (Dynamic Random Access Memory) are widely used in computer system …

In this paper, a novel variable-gain amplifier (VGA) and a novel voltage-controlled ring
oscillator (VCRO) are proposed. The two proposed schemes depend on the same controlled …
