Abstract:
Multi-bank SRAM devices, systems, methods of operating multi-bank SRAMs, and/or methods of fabricating multi-bank SRAM systems are disclosed. For example, illustrative multi-bank SRAMs and methods may include or involve features for capturing read and write addresses at a particular frequency, splitting and/or combining them via one or more splitting/combining processes, and bussing them to each SRAM bank, where they may be split and/or combined via one or more splitting/combining processes to read and write to a particular bank. Some implementations herein may also involve features for capturing two beats of write data at a particular frequency, splitting and/or combining them via one or more splitting/combining processes, and bussing them to each SRAM bank, where they may be split and/or combined via one or more splitting/combining processes for writing to a particular bank. Reading and writing to banks may occur at less than or equal to half the frequency of capture.
