Abstract

Content-addressable memory (CAM) is a hardware table that can search and Store data.CAM is actually considerable Power Consumption and parallel comparison feature where a large amount of transistor are active on each lookup. Thus, robust speed and low-power sense amplifiers are highly sought-after in CAM designs. In this paper, we introduce a modified parity bit matching that leads to delay reduction and power overhead.  The modified design minimizes the searching time by matching the store bit from most significant bit instead of matching all the data's present in the row. Furthermore, we propose an effective gated power techniques to decrease the peak and average power consumption and enhance robustness of the design against the process variation.
