SIMULATION / SA-MEM-003-DRAM-1T1C-SENSE-001

DRAM 1T1C charge sharing and sense margin
DRAM 1T1C Sense

Replay cell capacitance, bitline capacitance, and stored voltage to see the small differential a DRAM sense amplifier must resolve.

EXPLORE

Start with the observable.

Use this page when the simulation is the primary artifact. The linked lesson explains the concept; the linked lab keeps the visual replay surface available.

guided exploration
  • Start from charge sharing before discussing DRAM timing names.
  • Compare cell and bitline capacitance to see why the initial signal is tiny.
  • Use sense margin and sense-time proxy as separate outputs.

RUN CARD

Conditions before conclusions.

This page replays saved DRAM 1T1C data and does not run a live DRAM circuit or proprietary memory macro.

METHODS

How the number was made.

Methods are written for citation discipline: the extraction rule matters as much as the plotted value.

method

Bitline delta is computed from a simple capacitive charge-sharing relation.

Keep this method attached when reusing the figure or metric.

method

Sense margin subtracts a fixed comparator/noise floor proxy from the bitline delta.

Keep this method attached when reusing the figure or metric.

method

Sense-time proxy falls as the available differential grows.

Keep this method attached when reusing the figure or metric.

LIMITS

What this page does not claim.

The MVP is useful because the limits are visible. These statements prevent a teaching simulation from being cited as silicon evidence.

non-claim

No access transistor, parasitic network, bitline precharge circuit, sense-amplifier transistor model, or vendor DRAM timing is included.

Carry this boundary into any derivative note, paper draft, or slide.

non-claim

No measured DRAM cell, JEDEC, retention, or product claim is made.

Carry this boundary into any derivative note, paper draft, or slide.

non-claim

Use measured arrays or calibrated circuit models before citing DRAM sense margins.

Carry this boundary into any derivative note, paper draft, or slide.

EVIDENCE

Trace the claim back to artifacts.

The evidence route remains the catalog-level browser; this page is the simulation-level reading card.

evidence note

v64 deep results store every capacitance, voltage, margin, and timing row.

evidence note

CSV export preserves the charge-sharing table.

evidence note

The memory lesson now separates 1T1C cell evidence from system-level DRAM/HBM behavior.
