Embedded Memory Design for Multi-Core and Systems on Chip

This book describes the various tradeoffs systems designers face when designing embedded memory. It uses real product examples to demonstrate embedded memory design flow from architecture, to circuit design, design for test and yield analysis.

Provides a comprehensive overview of embedded memory design and associated challenges and choices Explains tradeoffs and dependencies across different disciplines involved with multi-core and system on chip memory design Includes detailed discussion of memory hierarchy and its impact on energy and performance Uses real product examples to demonstrate embedded memory design flow from architecture, to circuit design, design for test and yield analysis Includes supplementary material: sn.pub/extras
