Following Table shows that SRAM power dissipation in writing and Reading operation.

( It's from "A Low Power SRAM USing Hierarchical Bit Line And Local Sense Amplifiers, IEEE, 2005" )

The SRAM consumed 28mW at Write operation.

Question : What is "Write operation" refered in this paper?

Is it that Power dissipation needed to write only One Cell?

or Total Power dissipation "on Writing operation" ?

thanks
 

I think, it's the power dissipation for writing operation at once.

i think it is for a writing a particular number of cells or writing the whole array of cells at once.... because the only the power dissipation would be this high for CMOS technology....

Dynamic Power Dissipation Or Static Power Dissipation?

In my thought, Dynamic Dissipation is ture.
 

i think it is dynamic for writing operation and static for read operation....

Click to expand...

I don't Understand why consumed static power dissipation in reading operation.

is it right that consume dynamic power dissipation in reading operation, too ?

thanks
 

while reading the MOS doesnt change state...

dynamic power is when a memory element switches... for writing they would have calculated worst case and hence i assume they would have switched....
