US Patent 7403412 Integrated circuit chip with improved array stability

A multi-threshold integrated circuit (IC) that may be supplied by multiple supplies, with an array of latches such as an array static random access memory (SRAM) cells and a CMOS SRAM with improved stability and reduced subthreshold leakage. Selected devices (NFETs and/or PFETs) in array cells and support logic, e.g., in the data path and in non-critical logic, are tailored for lower gate and subthreshold leakage. Normal base FETs have a base threshold and tailored FETs have a threshold above. In a multi-supply chip, circuits with tailored FETs are powered by an increased supply voltage.
