Abstract

A nonvolatile ferroelectric RAM (WFRAM) based on a 1-transistor and 1-capacitor (IT/C) memory cell has potential for fast-access time and small-chip size comparable with DRAM. However, previously reported NVFRAMs are still slower that ordinary DRAMs, since driving a cell plate line NVFRAM is slow. Fortunately, using a non-driven cell plate line write/read (NDP) scheme could lead to NVFRAMs wit as fast access time as DRAMs.
