# Bitcells
This page of the documentation explains the bitcells supported by OpenRAM.
## Table of Contents
1. [Multiport Bitcells ](#multiport-bitcells )
2. [Relative Bitcell Sizes ](#relative-bitcell-sizes-035um-scmos )
3. [Thin SRAM Bitcells ](#thin-sram-bitcells-130nm )
## Multiport Bitcells
* Based on 6T SRAM cell
* Standard read-write
* Isolated read-only ports
* Write-only port (not sized for reads)
* Can accommodate foundry bitcells
