Abstract

A SRAM module and a writing control method of the SRAM module are disclosed. The writing control method of the SRAM module is applied to a SRAM module that includes a plurality of memory cells and a bit line. The method includes: providing a first voltage as a supply voltage of the plurality of memory cells during a data retention time; decreasing a first voltage level corresponding to the data retention time of the memory cells to a second voltage level by discharging the memory cells; and performing a write process to the memory cells through the bit line. The discharge time from the first voltage level to the second voltage level is related to the number of the memory cells.
