    Abstract: A latching circuit has an input for receiving the data value, an output for outputting a value indicative of the data value, a clock signal input for receiving a clock signal; and a pass gate. A feedback loop has two switching circuits arranged in parallel between two inverting devices, a first of the two switching circuits is configured to be off and not conduct in response to a control signal having a predetermined control value and a second of the two switching circuits is configured to be on and conduct in response to the control signal having the predetermined control value. A control signal controlling the two switching circuits is linked such that the switching devices switch their conduction status and the access control device act together to update the data value within the feedback loop.

    Abstract: A memory device including an array of memory cells arranged as a plurality of rows and columns. Write circuitry then controls a voltage level of the associated at least one bit line for each of the addressed memory cells to cause write data to be written into the addressed memory cells. In the presence of an asserted erase signal, a decoder circuitry's operation is modified such that it issues, independently of the clock signal, an asserted word line signal on the word line associated with each row in a predetermined erase region of the array. Further, the write circuitry's operation is modified so that it controls the voltage level of the associated at least one bit line for each memory cell in the predetermined erase region, in order to cause erase write data to be written into the memory cells of the predetermined erase region.
