Dual Port SRAM: Memory Architecture
The sub-blocks of the dual port memory architecture is presented in the course with a key focus on the path from the array bit lines to the data pins for both the read and write. A memory can have many possibilities of how the bits and bits per word is configured which is based on the number of rows and columns in the array. All of the key blocks required to decode the columns, sense the data, select and decode the sense amp and drive the Data Out pin for a read from the bit lines are discussed. The write path from the Data In pin up through the column decode and write select circuitry is also presented.
What you will learn:
- Review all of the key blocks required to decode the columns, sense the data, select and decode the sense amp and drive the Data Out pin for a read from the bit lines are discussed
