LOW VOLTAGE AND LOW POWER STATIC RANDOM ACCESS MEMORY (SRAM)

摘要

A static random access memory having a static random access memory cell array, row address buffers for receiving row address signals, and column address buffers for receiving column address signals. The static random access memory also includes a clock chain circuit connected to the row address buffers and column address buffers such as to be responsive to transitions in the row address signals and column address signals by generating clock signals for accessing the static random access memory cell array. A method for accessing a static random access memory comprising detecting a transition occurring in a row address signal for addressing a static random access memory cell array; generating a plurality of clock signals in response to the transition in the row address signal; and accessing the static random access memory cell array.
