Abstract
A static random access memory device comprising a memory array provided with SRAM memory cells, each of said cells in said array comprising a first storage node and a second storage node, the device further being provided with a control circuit for controlling said cells configured to, after powering up the array, place the array into a first operating mode in which a first set of cells located in a first zone of the array into a so-called 'metastable' state for which the first storage node and said second storage node are placed to equal or substantially equal potentials while a second set of cells located in a second zone of the array distinct from the first zone have their respective first node and second node to respective different potentials and corresponding to a given logic state between a low state and a high state and to a logic state complementary to said given state.
