Question: Consider the circuit in Fig. 1 2 . 3 1 from CMOS VLSI Design book ( 4 th Edition ) by Neil H . E

Consider the circuit in Fig. 12.31 from CMOS VLSI Design
book (4th Edition) by Neil H. E. Weste and David Money Harris. Propose a set of transistor sizes for all the MOSFETs in the pre-charge, read, write circuitry and the sram cell itself. Make sure you have considered writeabilty and read stability. Estimate the delay to precharge a bit line assuming there are 512 cells in the column. Assume diffusion capacitance of a MOSFET is equal to its gate capacitance. Assume n/p =2. Estimate the time it takes to discharge a bit line to Vdd/2. Express delays in multiples of a MOSFETs RC delay.
