ABSTRACT
This project is focus on the research and evaluation on the characteristic of
independent controllable gate FinFET structure in static random access memory
(SRAM) circuitry. BSIM-CMG model for common gate FinFET is chosen in this
research. The independent controllable gate FinFET is constructed using two parallel
connection of common gate FinFET except the gate terminal, thus it has the
independent controllable gate capability. SRAM 6T scheme is being chosen in this
study and benchmarking with the conventional common gate FinFET SRAM. Netlist
for device NMOS and PMOS, and the SRAM circuitry are being constructed and
simulated with HSPICE tool. From the device perspective, through the dynamic gate
voltage adjustment capability, the IV characteristic of this proposed structure has better
drive currents with 1.1X for NMOS and 1.3X for PMOS compare to conventional
common gate FinFET. Besides that, there is a significant reduction of leakage current
in this proposed structure compare to the conventional common gate FinFET, the
reduction leakage for NMOS and PMOS is up to 3 order magnitude. The results of the
SRAM circuitry constructed by this proposed independent controllable gate FinFET
structure has shown that the read and write margin are higher than the conventional
common gate FinFET SRAM design. Besides that, the proposed structure in SRAM
design is beneficial to low power application design as it has lower standby current.
Furthermore, different back gate bias scheme for this structure is explored, and the
optimum back gate scheme is proposed which having the reverse biased on Pull Down
device and Pull Up device, with the dynamic gate voltage control on the Pass Gate
device.

CHAPTER 1
INTRODUCTION
1.1 Background
Semiconductor memories can be categorized as volatile and non-volatile type.
The main difference between volatile memory and non-volatile memory is that volatile
type only retain the data when there is a power supply but non-volatile type can obtain
the stored information even though it is not powered. Volatile type is widely use as
primary storage in semiconductor design because it is faster, reliable and cost effective
compare to non-volatile type of memory. Static Random Access Memory (SRAM) is
classified as volatile memory.
In VLSI design especially multi core processor architectures, the demand of
on-chip caches for data sharing and storage efficiency is high and important across
parallel processing units [1]. The memory is designed in SRAM array thus it is
occupying a large fraction of chip area in many design nowadays. In the recent deep
submicron technology, both static and dynamic power dissipated is high. Static power
dissipation has concern because most of the time SRAM stays in standby mode and
compared to switching time. However dynamic power dissipation cannot be
neglected, it can be minimized with the scaling of voltage supply due to the square law
dependency of digital circuit active power. Thus it requires the scaling of threshold
voltage to maintain the performance but low threshold voltage introduces high leakage
currents such as sub threshold leakage current due to shorter channel length. In
2
addition, the scaling of supply voltage and threshold voltage will cause instability of
the SRAM cell for nanometer technology nodes [2].
SRAM design in planar MOSFET is challenging in deep submicron technology
due to short channel effect (SCE), layout dependent effect (LDE) and high leakage
current. The thinning of gate oxides result in higher gate leakage and causing gate
induced drain leakage (GIDL) [3]. FinFET device architecture is a promising candidate
to replace MOSFET in SRAM design for improved scalability. FinFET offer lower
gate leakage and sub-threshold leakage due to two electrically coupled gates and the
thin silicon body which suppress the short channel effects [2]. Moreover it enhances
gate controllability over the channel allowing thicker gate oxide which can reduce the
gate leakage significantly [2]. Moreover, FinFET has a lower process variation
compared to planar MOSFET as FinFET has minimum random dopant fluctuations
(RDF) due to the lightly body doping [4].
1.2 Problem Statement
Planar MOSFET scaling could not continue forever with Moore’s law, planar
structure in nanometer range introduced a lot of degradation effects and deep
submicron effect to the device such as short channel length effect. Aggressive scaling
in MOSFET result in higher leakage current and sensitive to process variation. FinFET
architecture is chosen as promising candidate due to its lower leakage current and
better scalability and higher Ion/Ioff ratio [5].
SRAM arrays greatly contribute to overall VLSI design thus power
consumption is always a concern for SRAM especially standby power as it is having
the behavior of short active periods but long idle periods [1]
3
In common gate FinFET, two gates are biased together to switch the FinFET
on or off. Thus this gives no flexibility control over the gate bias. However,
independent gate FinFET provides independent biasing on gate with one gate used to
switch the FinFET on and off and the other gate used to determine the threshold voltage
to minimize the leakage. The back gate operation mode offer the flexibility to tune the
static and dynamic performance characteristic. The only drawback of independent gate
finFET is having lower drive current strength compared to common gate FinFET.
It is clear that SRAM in planar bulk MOSFET is not a solution in future
anymore and FinFET is a good candidate to address its weakness. In addition, the
intention of this proposal is to combine both advantage of common gate and
independent gate FinFET into one model for SRAM design. This model is consists of
parallel common gate FinFET with source and drain connected but having two gates
to enable independent gate biasing. Each of the common gate FinFET is having half
dimension to compensate the area penalty imposed.
1.3 Objectives
The study of Static Random Access Memory (SRAM) circuitry by using
independent gate controllable technique on common gate FinFET. The objectives are:
To develop a simple subckt model in order to enable the behavior of
independent gate control
To explore the technique of independent gate controllable technique on SRAM
To evaluate the performance and standby leakage on proposed technique
benchmarking with conventional SRAM FinFET structure.

1.4 Research Scope
The scope of study includes the literature review of SRAM circuitry on FinFET
device and fundamental of SRAM operation is studied. Common gate FinFET device
has been commercialize widely and FinFET based SRAM design has becoming
popular practice, thus comparison with conventional common gate FinFET SRAM is
carried out.
In this research, independent controllable gate structure on common gate
FinFET is proposed. The proposed approach is to minimize the leakage current and
boost up the performance of SRAM. Performance of SRAM with this new technique
is evaluated and compared with conventional common gate FinFET SRAM.
The research also includes the investigation on the behaviour, advantages and
disadvantages on this technique. Various aspect like power, performance and area are
discussed.
