Block redundancy in ultra low power memory circuits

A circuit comprising a memory array and a logic circuit. The memory array may be configured to read or write data in response to (i) one or more enable signals and (ii) a global signal. The logic circuit may be configured to generate the enable signals in response to one or more address signals. De-...

Zusammenfassung:A circuit comprising a memory array and a logic circuit. The memory array may be configured to read or write data in response to (i) one or more enable signals and (ii) a global signal. The logic circuit may be configured to generate the enable signals in response to one or more address signals. De-assertion of the enable signals generally reduces current consumption in the memory array.
