    Abstract: A memory device and method of operating a memory device are provided. The memory device comprises global control circuitry configured to receive a clock signal for the memory device and the memory device is configured to perform a double memory access in response to a single edge of the clock signal. A first internal clock pulse for a first access of the double memory access and a second internal clock pulse for a second access of the double memory access are generated in response to the single edge of the clock signal. The global control circuitry generates a comparison signal in dependence on a comparison between a first bank indicated by the first access and a second bank indicated by the second access, and local bank control circuitry of the second bank is configured to generate the second internal clock pulse in dependence on the comparison signal.

    Abstract: Various implementations described herein are related to a device having memory with sense amplifiers and precharge blocks arranged in an array with a first side and a second side. The first side has first sense amplifiers and first precharge blocks coupled together with first bitlines, and the second side has second sense amplifiers and second precharge blocks coupled together with second bitlines. The device has a first delay block coupled to the first precharge blocks in the first side of the array, and the first delay block delays precharge of the first bitlines with a first precharge burst in a multi-burst precharge event. The device has a second delay block coupled to the second precharge blocks in the second side of the array, and the second delay block delays precharge of the second bitlines with a second precharge burst in the multi-burst precharge event.

    Abstract: Various implementations described herein are directed to an integrated circuit having first devices arranged to operate as a latch. The first devices may include inner devices and outer devices. The integrated circuit may include second devices coupled to the first devices and arranged to operate as a level shifter. The second devices may include upper devices and lower devices. The lower devices may be cross-coupled to gates of the inner devices and the upper devices. The integrated circuit may include input signals applied to gates of the outer devices and the lower devices to thereby generate output signals from the outputs of the lower devices that are applied to the gates of the inner devices and the upper devices to activate latching of the output signals.

    Abstract: A memory device includes an array of memory cells arranged as a plurality of rows and columns, each row being coupled to an associated read word line, and each column forming at least one column group, where the memory cells of each column group are coupled to an associated read bit line. Each column group includes circuitry to precharge the associated read bit line to a first voltage level prior to the read operation. Each memory cell has coupling circuitry connected between the associated read bit line and a second voltage level different to the first voltage level. During read operation the coupling circuitry associated with the activated memory cell selectively discharges the associated read bit line towards the second voltage level dependent on the data value stored within that activated memory cell. The clamping circuitry connects the associated read bit line to the second voltage level.
