Abstract
A re-configurable core cell is provided that can be used as either a content addressable memory cell or a dual-ported static read only memory cell. The re-configurable core cells are pre-diffused on the chip. The core cells may then be configured as CAM or SRAM with a metal layer. The peripheral logic of the CAM or SRAM may be built from gate array devices.
