摘要:
A circuit can include address evaluation circuitry coupled to an address bus of a memory and configured to generate a first control signal responsive to determining that an address on the address bus has not changed for a current clock cycle from a previous clock cycle. The circuit can include write enable evaluation circuitry coupled to the memory and configured to generate a second control signal responsive to determining that a write enable signal of the memory is de-asserted for the current clock cycle and for the previous clock cycle. The circuit can include clock enable circuitry coupled to a clock enable port of the memory and configured to generate a clock enable signal to the clock enable port of the memory responsive to the first control signal and the second control signal.
