    摘要: Embodiments that may allow for selectively tuning a delay of individual write paths within a memory are disclosed. The memory may comprise a memory array, a first data latch, a second data latch, and circuitry. The first and second data latches may be configured to each sample a respective data value, responsive to detecting a first edge of a first clock signal. The circuitry may be configured to detect the first edge of the first clock signal, and select an output of the first data latch responsive to detecting the first edge of the first clock signal. The circuitry may detect a subsequent opposite edge of the first clock signal, and select an output of the second data latch responsive to sampling the opposite edge of the first clock signal.

    摘要: In a memory having a first memory cell array, a second memory cell array, an address is received on an address port. Based on the address, an internal address is transmitted, and it is latched and held for a first interval as a first array address. The first memory cell array is accessed over the first interval, based on the first array address. Another address is received at the address port, during the first interval, and another internal address is transmitted, and latched and held for a second interval that overlaps the first interval, as a second array address. The second memory cell array is accessed during the second interval, based on the second array address.

    摘要: A dynamic random access memory integrated circuit and method includes internal refresh control and an array configured to receive read and write access requests having priority over pending refresh requests, wherein refresh requests are queueable and retired on clock cycles not requiring an access of the array and complete in one clock cycle. No on-board cache memory is required. A method includes: determining within the circuit when one of the banks of the array requires a refresh, prioritizing read and write access requests over pending refresh requests, read access requests initiating an access to the array without determining whether data is available from outside the array, and retiring within a clock cycle one pending refresh request to a bank when that bank has pending refresh requests and does not also require an access of the array on that clock cycle.

    摘要: A Dynamic Random Access Memory (DRAM) performs read, write, and refresh operations. The DRAM includes a plurality of sub-arrays, each having a plurality of memory cells, each of which is coupled with a complementary bit line pair and a word line. The DRAM further includes a word line enable device for asserting a selected one of the word lines and a column select device for asserting a selected one of the bit line pairs. A timing circuit is provided for controlling the word line enable device, the column select device, and the read, write, and refresh operations in response to a word line timing pulse. The read, write, and refresh operation are performed in the same amount of time.
