Design and Implementation of a High-resolution SRAM Timing Parameters Measuring Circuit
A common DTC(Digital-to-Time Converter)circuit structure has been optimized
it is able to achieve twostage adjustment levels
both coarse and specific level.With the SMIC 130 nm technology
the adjustment range of the DTC structure reaches 0 ~ 2.0ns and the resolution achieves 5ps.Meanwhile
the area of circuit is can be cut down by 50%
and non-linear error is optimized as well.Based on the improved DTC
two measuring schemes are designed to measure the setup time and hold time for input ports
and the data access time for output ports.The simulation result shows that the overall measurement error is less than 3.33%.
