Power Line Lowering for Write Assisted Control Scheme

摘要

Some embodiments of the present disclosure relate to a memory array having a cell voltage generator configured to provide a cell voltage header to a plurality of memory cells. The cell voltage generator is connected to the memory cells by way of supply voltage line and controls a supply voltage of the memory cells. The cell voltage generator has a pull-down element coupled between a control node of the supply voltage line and a ground terminal, and a one or more pull-up elements connected in parallel between the control node and a cell voltage source. A control unit is configured to provide one or more variable valued pull-up enable signals to input nodes of the pull-up elements. The variable valued pull-up enable signals operate the pull-up elements to selectively connect the supply voltage line from the cell voltage source to provide a cell voltage header with a high slew rate.
