The present day electronic gadgets have semiconductor memory devices to store data. The static random access memory (SRAM) is a volatile memory, often preferred over dynamic random access memory (DRAM) due to higher speed and lower power dissipation. However, at scaling down of technology node, the leakage current in SRAM often increases and degrades its performance. To address this, the voltage scaling is preferred which subsequently affects the stability and delay of SRAM. This paper therefore presents a negative bit-line (NBL) write assist circuit which is used for enhancing the write ability while a separate (isolated) read buffer circuit is used for improving the read stability. In addition to this, the proposed design uses a tail (stack) transistor to decrease the overall static power dissipation and also to maintain the hold stability. The comparison of the proposed design has been done with state-of-the-art work in terms of write static noise margin (WSNM), write delay, read static noise margin (RSNM) and other parameters. It has been observed that there is an improvement of 48%, 11%, 19% and 32.4% in WSNM while reduction of 33%, 39%, 48% and 22% in write delay as compared to the conventional 6T SRAM cell, NBL, [Formula: see text] collapse and 9T UV SRAM, respectively.

As technology advances, the need for SRAM cells that may be utilised in high-speed applications grows. SRAM cells' static noise margin (SNM) is one of the most important variables to consider when designing a memory cell, and it is the main predictor of SRAM cell speed. The static noise margin will have an impact on the read and write margins. When it comes to the SRAM Cell's stability, the SNM is very important. For high-speed SRAMs, read/write margin analysis is critical since it affects how much data can be read and written. The simulation was run using Mentor Graphics' IC Station, which utilised 350nm technology rather than 180nm technology.

Ternary logic has been demonstrated as a superior contrasting option to binary logic. This paper presents a ternary subtractor circuit in which the input signal is converted into binary. The proposed design is implemented using Carbon Nanotube Field Effect Transistor (CNTFET), a forefront innovation. A correlation has been made in the proposed design on parameters like Power-Delay Product (PDP), Energy Delay Product (EDP), average power consumption, delay and static noise margin. Every one of these parameters is obtained by simulating the circuits on the HSPICE simulator. The proposed design indicates an improvement of 60.14%, 59.34%, 74.98% and 84.28%, respectively, in power consumption, delay, PDP and EDP individually in correlation with recent designs. The increased carbon nanotubes least affect the proposed subtractor design. In noise analysis, the proposed design outperformed all the existing designs.
