Abstract
There is an ever-increasing need for low-cost, higher density, lowpower and high-performance memory devices. Memristor is one of the most promising device for obtaining memories as it offers smaller area and lower consumption. In the proposed work memristor-based SRAM circuit has been designed by using 45 nm technology of Predictive Technology Model. The read time of 1-bit cell is 5 ps and the write time 7 ps. Total area of the cell is 3.861 µm2.
