The authors describe a DRAM with a battery-backup (BBU) mode, which allows automatic data retention with extremely reduced power consumption. The circuit techniques for reducing the refresh current and the back-bias-generator current are shown. The dissipated current required for data retention of 44 μA is achieved under typical conditions. This DRAM was fabricated with quad-poly and double-metal CMOS process technology. The memory array is divided into 4 × 32 subarrays. The finely divided array architecture is suitable for the fast access time and the multibit test mode.
