A variable timing system for a magnetoresistive random access memory circuit (MRAM IC) is embedded in an MRAM IC and includes a number of timing control circuits, where each timing control circuit generates a timing control signal. A number of variable timing circuits are each coupled to receive at least two of the timing control signals, and each of the number of timing circuits outputs a variable timing in response to the timing control signals. At least one MRAM timing driver is connected to receive the variable timing.

Method for generating adjustable MRAM timing signals

A magnetic random access memory having an extended address transition detection circuit having a chip enable input, a chip write enable input, a data bus connection, and an address bus connection. The extended address transition detection circuit has an extended transition detection signal output. The magnetic random access memory has a timing controller with a timing control input connected to the address transition detection signal output. The chip enable input, the chip write enable input, the data bus connection, and the address bus connection are buffered and driven off chip.
