Abstract
A disclosed memory structure includes memory cells connected to first and second cell supply voltage lines. A programming circuit enables programming of a low cell supply voltage (Vcsl) on the first cell supply voltage line and includes transistors with different threshold voltages connected to ground and further connectable, via switches, to the first cell supply voltage line. The programming circuit can further include an additional switch connected between ground and the first cell supply voltage line. In an operational mode, the first cell supply voltage line is discharged to ground via the additional switch. In the retention mode, one of the transistors of the programming circuit is connected by a corresponding switch to the first cell supply voltage line for programming of Vcsl. Optionally, the memory structure can be implemented in FDSOI and the transistors of the programming circuit can also be back biased for fine tuning of Vcsl.
