Abstract — This paper aims to propose a novel method for
designing an SRAM cell using an Etched Drain based Cyl. GAA TFET with a
hetero-substrate material and an elevated density strip. The aim is to
reduce power dissipation and improve stability, as demonstrated through
analysis utilizing SNM as well as N-Curve methods. With respect to the
16nm MOSFET based SRAM cell, the proposed device-based SRAM cell shows
significant improvements with a 68.305% reduction in leakage power, a
15.58% increase in SVNM, an 8.623% increase in SINM, an 8.152%
increase in WTV, a 12.86% increase in WTI, a 27.62% increase in SPNM,
and a 19.95% increase in WTP. The design is implemented and analyzed
using Cadence Virtuoso software, and a novel approach of look up tables
and Verilog A is utilized for the device to circuit application. These
results indicate promising advancements in the design of SRAM cells,
which could have significant implications for the development of
advanced computer systems.
