Abstract
Systems design and methods are provided for maintaining the memory array stability while reducing power consumption in the form of leakage current in a memory array. One embodiment discloses a memory array system, which comprises a plurality of memory cells, a monitor cell array, a controller, and voltage regulator circuits. The controller receives information from the monitor cell array, determines the state of stability, and adjusts the voltage regulators accordingly to ensure the memory array stability and minimizes leakage.
