  • Patent number: 8934314
    Abstract: Embodiments of an apparatus and method to improve power delivery including a pre-charge circuit that may include a first voltage supply rail configured to provide a first voltage amount to perform a first phase of a pre-charge of a bit line and a second voltage supply rail configured to provide a second voltage amount to perform a second phase of the pre-charge of the bit line are described herein. In embodiments, the pre-charge circuit may be a pre charge circuit for a static random-access memory (SRAM) memory cell.
    Type: Grant

  • Patent number: 6240024
    Abstract: A method and apparatus for generating an echo clock is described. An echo clock is an output strobe signal that selectively follows an input clock signal in a synchronous memory system and indicates when valid output data is available. The same clock signals used to change the state of an echo clock are used to output data from a memory buffer. The data buffer and echo clock buffer/generator are substantially identical in construction and operation, thereby ensuring a close correlation between a change in state of the echo clock and the availability of valid data. Such a memory provides matching of the echo clock transitions with that of the data signals on the data lines of the memory for any frequency range.
