Abstract

Low power consumption and high speed are the two major concerns related to the design of CAM (Content Addressable Memory). In this paper, we combined the performance advantage of NOR-type CAM with power efficiency of NAND-type CAM which is termed as Hybrid-CAM. It is implemented using 30 nm SOI technology utilizing the BSIM model for SOI. Each CAM word is divided into two segments in which one segment is implemented using NAND-type and the other using NOR-type. The realized hybrid-CAM, based on 30 nm 0.9V SOI, achieves a 93% power reduction and 47% performance improvement As compared to the traditional NAND-type and NOR-type CAM cells implemented on SOI technology.
