Abstract:
An integrated circuit element is disclosed having a memory device; a P-type semiconductor region including a first semiconductor device from a first memory port circuit coupled to the memory device and configured to enable access to the memory device when the first semiconductor device is activated; an N-type semiconductor region including a second semiconductor device from a second memory port circuit coupled to the memory device and configured to enable access to the memory device when the second semiconductor device is activated; and a plurality of signal lines distributed over the P-type and N-type semiconductor regions including a first memory port selection line coupled to allow the first semiconductor device to be activated; a second memory port selection line coupled to allow the second semiconductor device to be activated; and a clock signal line placed between the first memory port selection line and the second memory port selection line.
