A memory having at least one memory array block, the at least one memory array block comprising N wordlines, wherein N is greater than one, is provided. The memory comprises a plurality of sense amplifiers coupled to the at least one memory array block. The memory further comprises at least one dummy bitline, wherein the at least one dummy bitline comprises M dummy bitcells, wherein M is equal to N. The memory further comprises a timing circuit coupled to the at least one dummy bitline, wherein the timing circuit comprises at least one stack of pull-down transistors coupled to a sense circuit for generating a latch control output signal used for timing control of memory accesses. Timing control may include generating a sense trigger signal to enable the plurality of sense amplifiers for read operations and/or generating a local reset signal for terminating memory accesses, such as disabling the plurality of write drivers for write operations.
