Systems and methods for avoiding read disturbance in a static random-access memory (SRAM) |
摘要 |
Systems and methods are provided for reading from a static random-access memory (SRAM). The systems and methods include activating a first bitline connected to a first transistor, wherein the first transistor provides access to a state stored by the SRAM. The systems and methods further include preventing a second bitline from being activated when the first bitline is activated, wherein the second bitline is connected to a second transistor that isolates the SRAM from a reference potential when the second bitline is activated, and reading the state stored by the SRAM by triggering a wordline connected to a gate of the first transistor. |

1. A method for reading from a static random-access memory (SRAM), the method comprising:
activating a first bitline connected to a first transistor, wherein the first transistor provides access to a state stored by the SRAM; preventing a second bitline from being activated when the first bitline is activated, wherein the second bitline is connected to a second transistor that isolates the SRAM from a reference potential when the second bitline is activated; and reading the state stored by the SRAM by triggering a wordline connected to a gate of the first transistor. |
