Digital systems are composed of data paths, control paths and memories. The recent advancements in VLSI technology and high memory demand of today's VLSI systems have made embedded memories very common in digital systems.The ways that a memory can fail depends on the behavior of its components. A vertical slice of an SRAM consists of 1) a sense amplifier, 2) an isolation and pre-charge circuit, 3) one or more memory cells and 4) a write head as shown in Figure 1. A memory also has an address decoder, which could be designed with static or dynamic logic.
