Zusammenfassung: | A memory circuit includes: memory cells each including a storage transistor corresponding to a predetermined configuration; and a tracking circuit configured to elapse a variable waiting period during which a voltage on a first node decreases from a first level to a second level, the tracking circuit including a first finger circuit coupled between a first node of a tracking bit line and a reference voltage node, the first finger circuit including a first set of first tracking cells, each first tracking cell including a first shadow transistor corresponding to the predetermined configuration, gate terminals of the first shadow transistors being coupled with a tracking word line; and a second finger circuit coupled between the first node and the reference voltage node; and a first switch configured to adjust the variable waiting period by selectively coupling the second finger circuit in parallel with the first finger circuit. |
