• 基于BAC写信道建模的2T0C阵列电荷写入一致性研究

    Study on charge writing uniformity in 2T0C arrays based on BAC write channel modeling

    • 低温工艺兼容且可三维集成的双晶体管无电容型(2T0C)增益单元(Gain Cell, GC)技术有望成为下一代高密度低功耗存储器。然而,在大规模2T0C GC阵列中,由于晶体管电性参数波动、互连线寄生效应及邻近单元之间的寄生电容耦合等问题,使GC存储节点(SN)中电荷(QSN)的写入一致性较单个2T0C单元显著下降。存储器信道建模与分析方法是研究读写操作中扰动引发的逻辑误差的概率统计特性的有效手段。提出采用二进制非对称信道(Binary Asymmetric Channel, BAC)模型描述2T0C增益单元中QSN的写入统计特性。基于此模型,研究了晶体管电性参数波动和沟道载流子注入等效应引起的写入QSN噪声概率分布,并分析了大规模存储阵列中互连线寄生参数导致的写入延迟引起的QSN写入差异。进一步地,采用高斯混合模型描述大规模2T0C GC阵列写入QSN的概率密度统计特性。与电路仿真对比结果表明,所提出的高斯混合模型在噪声扰动σ ≤ 7%时,能够准确地预测写入QSN的概率分布。

       

      Abstract: The capacitorless dual-transistor (2T0C) gain cell (GC) technology, compatible with low-temperature processes and 3D integration, holds strong potential as a next-generation high-density, low-power memory. However, in large-scale 2T0C GC arrays, the write consistency of the storage charge (QSN) at the storage node (SN) significantly degrades due to variations in transistor parameters, interconnect parasitics, and coupling between adjacent cells. Memory channel modeling provides an effective approach to statistically characterize logical errors induced by physical disturbances during read and write operations. This paper proposes using a Binary Asymmetric Channel (BAC) model to describe the statistical characteristics of QSN writing in 2T0C gain cells. Based on this model, the noise probability distribution of written QSN induced by transistor electrical parameter fluctuations and channel carrier injection effects is investigated, and the differences in QSN writing due to write delays caused by interconnect parasitic parameters in large-scale arrays are analyzed. Furthermore, a Gaussian Mixture Model is employed to characterize the probability density distribution of QSN writing in large-scale 2T0C GC arrays. Comparison with circuit simulation results indicates that the proposed Gaussian Mixture Model can accurately predict the probability distribution of QSN writing when the noise disturbance is σ ≤ 7%.
