Abstract

A circuit includes a serializer configured to receive a non-serialized input signal having a first bit-width and generate a plurality of serialized input signals each having a second bit-width. A memory array is configured to receive each of the plurality of serialized input signals. The memory array is further configured to generate a plurality of serialized output signals. A de-serializer is configured to receive the plurality of serialized output signals and generate a non-serialized output signal. The plurality of serialized output signals each have a bit-width equal to second bit-width and the non-serialized output signal has a bit-width equal to the first bit-width.
