Abstract
A content addressable memory includes a first plurality of search lines, a second plurality of search lines, a first match line, and a storage location. Each search line of the first plurality of search lines receives a corresponding high voltage level or low voltage level during a match detect operation, and each search line of the second plurality of search lines to receive a corresponding high voltage level or low voltage level during the match detect operation. The storage location of the content addressable memory includes a plurality of CAM cells, each CAM cell a first thyristor and second thyristor.
