Designing Low-Power Field-Programmable OTP Memory Arrays
 
By Jim Lipman
Sidense
With off-chip memory access being one of the major contributors to chip power dissipation, designers are turning to embedded non-volatile memory (NVM) for a variety of mobile and other power-sensitive applications. Over the past few years, a chip's power consumption has increasingly become a prime chip performance specification. As a result, the need for low power embedded memory has become critical in many designs. more >>
