  • Patent number: 10515684
    Abstract: Various implementations described herein are directed to an integrated circuit having a wordline driver coupled to a bitcell via a wordline. The wordline driver may include multiple transistors. The integrated circuit may include a read assist transistor coupled to the wordline between the wordline driver and the bitcell. Gates of the read assist transistor and at least one transistor of the multiple transistors may be coupled together. While activated, the read assist transistor may provide a read assist signal to the wordline when the wordline is selected and driven by the wordline driver.

  • Patent number: 10229731
    Abstract: Disclosed are methods, systems and devices for operation of a circuit to boost a voltage at a load for a particular duration. A plurality of capacitors, each capacitor comprising at least a first terminal, may be coupled to an assisted node. At least a first capacitor and a second capacitor of the plurality of capacitors may maintain the assisted node at or about a target voltage for a duration. The second capacitor may be charged while the first capacitor is discharging in at least a portion of the duration.

  • Patent number: 10199092
    Abstract: Various implementations described herein are directed to a device having a memory cell coupled to complementary bitlines. The memory cell may store at least one data bit value associated with complementary bitline signals received via the complementary bitlines. The device may include a pair of write drivers coupled to the memory cell via the complementary bitlines. The pair of write drivers may be arranged to provide the complementary bitline signals to the memory cell based on complementary boost signals. The device may include a pair of complementary boost generators coupled to corresponding gates of the pair of write drivers. The pair of complementary boost generators may be arranged to selectively provide the complementary boost signals to the corresponding gates of the pair of write drivers based on the at least one data bit value.
