A tracking circuit of a memory circuit is provided. The tracking circuit is coupled between a control circuit and a sense amplifier, delays a word-line pulse signal generated by the control circuit by a delay period to generate a sense amplifier enable signal enabling the sense amplifier to detect data bits output by a memory cell array. In one embodiment, the tracking circuit comprises a plurality of dummy cells and a dummy bit line. At least one of the plurality of dummy cells comprises a plurality of cascaded transistors cascaded between the dummy bit line and a ground voltage for lowering down a dummy bit line signal on the dummy bit line when the word-line pulse signal is enabled. The dummy bit line is coupled to the dummy cells and carries the dummy bit line signal.
