How does various capacitances vary in dynamic RAM or DRAM?

The DRAM capacitor Ccell must be as physically small as possible to achieve good density. However, the bitline is contacted to many DRAM cells and has a relatively large capacitance Cbit. Therefore, the cell capacitance is typically much smaller than the bitline capacitance. a large cell capacitance is important to provide a reasonable voltage swing. It also is necessary to retain the contents of the cell for an acceptably long time and to minimize soft errors.
