Abstract
A memory device includes a matrix of several columns of SRAM memory cells each including transistors forming a memory point, a read port and a write port, and such that the transistors of the read port and/or the P-type transistors include a second well with a conductivity type opposite that of a first well of the other transistors. The memory device also includes a polarization unit for the second wells, able to select and apply polarization potentials on the second wells, including a memory circuit of the polarization states of the second wells for each column or group of columns and a selection circuit applying a polarization potential on the second wells according to one of the values received as input, as a function of the stored polarization state associated with the column or group of columns.
