Consider the NMOS RAM cell with resistor load in Figure 16.74(b). Assume parameters values of k'n =80μA/V2, VTN = 0.4 V, VDD = 2.5 V, and R = 1 MΩ. (a) Design the width-to-length ratio of the driver transistor such that VDS = 20 mV for the on transistor, (b) Consider a 16-K memory with the cell described in part (a). Determine the standby cell current and the total memory power dissipation for a standby voltage of VDD = 1.2 V.
