A dummy wordline in a semiconductor memory controls the timing of the firing of sense amplifiers in the memory in relation to the firing of active wordlines in the memory. The dummy wordline receives a timing signal at the same time that an active wordline is fired, and the length of the dummy wordline is set during fabrication so the timing signal propagating along the dummy wordline arrives at the sense amplifiers and fires the sense amplifiers at a desired time.
