Abstract
A five-transistor static Random Access Memory (SRAM) cell accessed by a single bitline merged with heterogeneous memories, such as ROMs, EPROMs, EEPROMs, and DRAMs. Combined ROM and RAM cells have been included within a high performance signal processor. Advantages include area and power dissipation savings resulting from shared column bitlines, associated column decoders, and column sense amplifiers. This eliminates circuit duplication.
