Patent number: 11955169Abstract: A multi-port memory is provided that supports collision between a read port and a write port to the same multi-port bitcell. A sense amplifier reads a data bit from a multi-port bitcell when a write port to the multi-port bitcell is addressed during a system clock signal. Should a read port to the multi-port bitcell be addressed during the same system clock signal, a multiplexer selects for an output bit from the sense amplifier.Type: GrantFiled: March 23, 2021Date of Patent: April 9, 2024Assignee: QUALCOMM IncorporatedInventors: Pradeep Raj, Rahul Sahu, Sharad Kumar Gupta

Patent number: 11837313Abstract: A memory is provided that is configured to practice a sleep mode without retention in which a both bitcell array and a memory periphery are powered down responsive to an assertion of sleep mode without retention control signal. The sleep mode without retention control signal is also asserted during a DVS scan to power down the bitcell array. The memory includes a power management circuit that responds to an assertion of a DVS scan control signal to prevent the assertion of the sleep mode without retention control signal from causing a power down of the memory periphery during the DVS scan. The memory periphery may thus be thoroughly tested by the DVS scan because leakage current from the bitcell array is prevented by the powering down of the bitcell array.Type: GrantFiled: November 2, 2021Date of Patent: December 5, 2023Assignee: QUALCOMM INCORPORATEDInventors: Pradeep Raj, Rahul Sahu, Sharad Kumar Gupta, Chulmin Jung
