Semiconductor memories are becoming more and more present in the most hostile environments. In this paper, the electrical behavior of the 6T-SRAM memory cell in 3C-SiC in 130 nm CMOS technology was studied. The study of the effect of the cell ratio (CR), supply voltage (VDD) and temperature (T) on the static noise margin (SNM), as well as the influence of temperature on write time showed that this cell is characterized by a low power P  27 nW, a high speed (write time τwrite  0.305 ns) and a wide noise margin RSNM  320 mV, and also it works under a low voltage VDD  1.2 V and a high temperature up to 350 °C. The comparison with the literature has shown that the 6T-SRAM cell in SiC with 130 nm CMOS technology is characterized by good electrical behavior and high electrical performance.
