  • Publication number: 20210110867
    Abstract: Various implementations described herein refer to a method for providing memory with one or more banks. The method may include coupling read-write column multiplexer circuitry to the memory via bitlines including coupling a write column multiplexer to the bitlines for write operations and coupling a read column multiplexer to the bitlines for read operations. The method may include performing concurrent read operations and write operations in the one or more banks of the memory with the write column multiplexer and the read column multiplexer via the bitlines.

  • Patent number: 10861534
    Abstract: The claimed subject matter relate to circuits and/or methods, which operate to introduce a variable delay in a write-assist signal to a write driver of an array of SRAM cells. Particularly, a variable delay may be introduced by way of a voltage tracking circuit, which may generate a trigger signal in response to a voltage signal from an array of access devices that replicate access devices of the array of SRAM cells.
