Abstract: The present invention provides a pseudo dual-port memory. The pseudo dual-port memory includes a single-port memory, a multiplexer, a timing control circuit and an output circuit. The multiplexer is configured to sequentially output a first address and a second address to the single-port memory. The output circuit is configured to receive output data from the single-port memory to generate a first reading result corresponding to the first address and a second reading result corresponding to the second address. The output circuit includes a first sense amplifier and a second sense amplifier, wherein the first sense amplifier receives the output data to generate first data serving as the first reading result according to a first control signal, and the second sense amplifier receives the output data to generate second data serving as the second reading result according to a second control signal.

Abstract: A processing device performs dual-rail power equalization for its memory cell array and logic circuitry. The memory cell array is coupled to a first power rail through a first switch to receive a first voltage level. The logic circuitry is coupled to a second power rail through a second switch to receive a second voltage level that is different from the first voltage level. The processing device also includes a power switch coupled to at least the second power rail and operative to be enabled to equalize voltage supplied to the memory cell array and the logic circuitry.
