ABSTRACT:
A content-addressable memory (CAM) comprises a first CAM cell and a second CAM cell. The first CAM cell stores a first data bit, and compares the first data bit with a first search bit to determine if they are matched. The second CAM cell stores a second data bit, and compares the second data bit with a second search bit to determine if they are matched. The first CAM cell comprises a first logic circuit, the second CAM cell comprises a second logic circuit, and the first logic circuit and the second logic circuit form a static CMOS logic circuit.
