Zusammenfassung:Various implementations described herein are related to a device having memory circuitry activated by a power-gated supply. The device may include level shifting circuitry that receives a switch control signal in a first voltage domain, shifts the switch control signal in the first voltage domain to a second voltage domain, and provides the switch control signal in the second voltage domain. The device may include power-gating circuitry activated by the switch control signal in the second voltage domain, and the power-gating circuitry may provide the power-gated supply to the memory circuitry to trigger activation of the memory circuitry with the power-gated supply when activated by the switch control signal in the second voltage domain.
