Abstract

A programmable logic circuit such as a finite state machine is provided that is configured to determine a memory array power-up sequence from a configuration signal to successively enable each memory array. A delay circuit triggers an initial memory bank in each enabled memory array to power-up without a delay. The delay circuit then counts responsive to a clock to determine a delay between a successive triggering of remaining memory banks in each enabled memory array to power-up.
