ABSTRACT:
A memory cell includes an SRAM flip-flop cell having two nodes coupled to ferroelectric capacitors so that when the SRAM is powered down, the ferroelectric devices store data and upon power up, transfer the stored data to the SRAM cell. The ferroelectric devices can be bypassed during normal SRAM operations to reduce hysteresis fatigue.
