Abstract
Approaches for providing write-assist for a Static Random Access Memory (SRAM) array are provided. A circuit includes a control circuit connected to a cell in a SRAM array. The control circuit is configured to: apply a first voltage to a first pull down transistor of the cell during a write operation to the cell; and apply a second voltage, different than the first voltage, to a second pull down transistor of the cell during the write operation.
