Abstract:
A memory circuit including at least one memory array and at least one sleep transistor connected to the at least one memory array and connected to a first power line for providing a first power voltage. The memory circuit further includes at least one diode-connected transistor directly connected to the at least one memory array and directly connected to the first power line and a back-bias circuit electrically coupled with a bulk of the at least one diode-connected transistor.
