A cache having an internal data memory is provided. The cache includes latching logic coupled to an output of the data memory and configured to latch data output from the data memory. The latch also includes determining logic responsive to a request for data, the determining logic configured to determine whether requested data currently resides in the latching logic. Finally, the latch includes inhibit logic configured to inhibit active operation of the data memory, in response to the determining logic, if it is determined that the requested data currently resides in the latching logic. A related method for reading data from a cache is also provided.
