Abstract:
A circuit for recycling energy in bit lines (BL and BLB) of SRAM during write operation by (i) storing the charges BL and BLB to an intermediate voltage source (VLB) in a discharge phase and (ii) restoring the charges from the intermediate voltage, back to the BL or BLB in a recovery phase. The circuit includes an inductor, a pair of NMOS transistors, a series resonance node, and an energy source (VLB) in addition to the components of an SRAM input-output circuit shown as in FIG. 1. During the SRAM write operation, the BL or BLB is discharged to the energy source VLB through the pair of NMOS transistors and, the inductor and the series resonance node. The remaining energy in the BL and the BLB is discharged to ground using the write complementary write drivers.
