    摘要: A method and apparatus including a static random access memory (SRAM) cell implement an enhanced SRAM read performance sort ring oscillator (PSRO). A pair of parallel reverse polarity connected inverters defines a static latch or cross-coupled memory cell. The SRAM cell includes independent left and right wordlines providing a respective gate input to a pair of access transistors used to access to the memory cell. The SRAM cell includes a voltage supply connection to one side of the static latch. For example, a complement side of the static latch is connected to the voltage supply. A plurality of the SRAM cells is assembled together to form a SRAM base block. A plurality of the SRAM base blocks is connected together to form the SRAM read PSRO.

    摘要: An improved memory device has a reduced number of wires for carrying local write signals. The improved memory device includes an array of memory cells. A plurality of local true bitlines is coupled to the array of memory cells. A plurality of continuous complement bitlines is coupled to the array of memory cells. The memory device also includes a plurality of write circuits. At least one write circuit is coupled to at least one continuous complement bitline and at least one local true bitline, receives information on a data input from the continuous complement bitline, and controls the local true bitline. At least one local write line is coupled to at least two of the write circuits for providing a write enable signal to the two write circuits.
