Abstract: This paper presents a hybrid non-volatile (NV) SRAM cell with a new scheme for soft error tolerance. The proposed cell consists of a 6 T SRAM core, a resistive RAM made of a transistor and a Programmable Metallization Cell. An additional transistor and a transmission gate are utilized for selecting a memory cell in the NVSRAM array. Concurrent error detection (CED) and correction capabilities are provided by connecting the NVSRAM array with a dual-rail checker; CED is accomplished using a dual-rail checker, while correction is accomplished by utilizing the restore operation, such that data from the non-volatile memory element is copied back to the SRAM core. The simulation results show that the proposed scheme is very efficient in terms of numerous figures of merit. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
