Abstract:
Charge-domain computing-in-memory (CIM) requires large storage node (SN) capacitors to achieve high computational accuracy and energy efficiency, which fundamentally limits the scalability of CIM arrays. Although capacitorless gain cells (GCs) offer significantly higher array density, their parasitic capacitances hinder practical CIM applications. In this work, we utilized the partial element equivalent circuit (PEEC) method to efficiently extract parasitic parameters from large-scale two-transistor capacitorless (2T0C) GC arrays. We developed comprehensive equivalent parasitic models for in-array 2TOC gain cells, with dedicated optimization for both read and write operations. Experimental results demonstrated that parasitic effects induce a 15% degradation in SN voltage and a 25% reduction in retention time when scaling to 32×32 arrays. Through cell layout optimization, we achieved a two-fold enhancement in computational current along with a 5.5 dB improvement in signal-to-noise ratio (SNR). © 2025 IEEE.
