CAM Cell Design Information
Nine Transistor CAM Cell
Layout of a typical Bit Cell
Layout of the Byte Cell
The Byte Cell consists of 8 Cam Cells with custom latching logic to
store the result of each byte compare. Four Byte Cells make up one 32-bit
memory word. The word layouts are then replicated to make the CAM array. The Byte Cell uses three
layer metal and was design for a 0.8u process. The dimensions of the byte
cell are 335.5u X 32.2u.
