ABSTRACT:
A design structure comprising an apparatus which reduces the power in memory devices in general and, in particular, static random access memory (SRAM) arrays featuring sense amplifier assist (SAA) circuitry. The design structure limits the implementation of the SAA circuitry to SRAM array blocks that do not meet the application voltage requirements.
