  ABSTRACT: In this paper, a novel 10 Transistor Static Random Access Memory (SRAM) cell is proposed. Read and Write bit lines are decoupled in the proposed cell. Feedback loop-cutting with single bit line write scheme is employed in the 10 Transistor SRAM cell to reduce active power consumption during the write operation. Read access time and write access time are measured for proposed cell architecture based on Eldo SPICE simulation using TSMC based 90 nm Complementary Metal Oxide Semiconductor (CMOS) technology at various process corners. Leakage current measurements made on hold mode of operation show that proposed cell architecture is having 12.31 nano amperes as compared to 40.63 nano amperes of the standard 6 Transistor cell. 10 Transistor cell also has better performance in terms of leakage power as compared to 6 Transistor cell.
