Abstract
In one aspect, a method of controlling the unused coupling capacitors to boost the efficiency of write-assist scheme in SRAM compiler space, includes the steps of: deselecting the plurality of unused coupling capacitors in an SRAM compiler-generated instance; driving the drive terminal of unused and deselected coupling capacitors a high impedance and making it float; while the negative bit-line drive for write assist is performed through a plurality of selected coupling capacitors. The unused coupling capacitors with one terminal floating do not load on the negative bit-line drive process which results in the negative bit-line write assist scheme operating more efficiently to produce a higher negative bump with smaller coupling capacitors at lower power consumption as the system operates at reduced loading.
