Design and Analysis of Content Addressable Memory

The Content addressable Memory (CAM) is high speed memories that are used in high speed networks, lookup tables and so on. The data to be searched will be compared with the data stored in the CAM cell and the address of the cell will be returned for the matched data. The parallel search operation in the memory is the important feature which improves the speed of search operation in CAM cells. However this parallel search operation will have its impact on the power dissipation, delay and various other parameters. This paper discusses the various low power CAM cells and analysis of its important parameters. Citation:Abarna.I, KIT- KalaignarKarunanidhi Institute of Technology; Mythili.R ,.
