Abstract: A memory device includes a plurality of memory cells; a word line, connected to one of the plurality of memory cells, that is configured to provide a first WL pulse having a rising edge and a falling edge that define a pulse width of the first WL pulse; a first tracking WL, formed adjacent to the memory cells, that is configured to provide, via being physically or operatively coupled to a bit line (BL) configured to write a logic state to the memory cell, a second WL pulse having a rising edge with a decreased slope; and a first tracking BL, configured to emulate the BL, that is coupled to the first tracking WL such that the pulse width of the first WL pulse is increased based on the decreased slope of the rising edge of the second WL pulse.

Abstract: A power control device includes a first switch and a second switch. A first terminal of the first switch is configured to receive a first voltage signal in a first voltage domain, and a first terminal of the second switch is configured to receive a second voltage signal in a second voltage domain different from the a first voltage domain. A second terminal of the second switch is coupled to a second terminal of the first switch, and a control circuit is coupled to control terminals of the first switch and the second switch. The control circuit is configured to turn on the first switch in response to a decrease of a voltage level of the first voltage signal.
