Abstract:
Various implementations described herein are directed to an integrated circuit. The integrated circuit may include a memory bank having an array of memory cells that are accessible via a selected wordline and a pair of complementary bitlines. The integrated circuit may include a dummy wordline coupled to each of the pair of complementary bitlines via a pair of coupling capacitors. The dummy wordline may mimic the selected wordline. During transitions of the pair of complementary bitlines between first and second logic states, the dummy wordline may receive coupling capacitance from the pair of complementary bitlines via the pair of coupling capacitors.
