Dual Port SRAM: Overview
This is the first in a series of tutorials on the design of a dual port SRAM. In this first tutorial an overview of the dual port SRAM is presented and compared to the single port SRAM. The benefits of a dual port at the system level are discussed followed by more details at the chip level which includes block diagrams and chip plans. The special requirements for the two independent ports accessing the shared memory array are reviewed in detail along with the operation of the dual port memory cell.
What you will learn:
- Present an overview of the dual port SRAM and examines special requirements
