Abstract
Embodiments of the present disclosure provide an apparatus including a memory array including a plurality of sub-arrays. A plurality of temporary storage units (TSUs) is coupled to the plurality of sub-arrays. Each TSU indicates whether the respective sub-array is undergoing one of a read operation and a write operation. A control circuit is coupled to each of the plurality of sub-arrays through a data bus. The control circuit transmits a read pulse or a write pulse as a first pulse with a delay in response to the sub-array undergoing the read operation or the write operation and transmits, instantaneously, the first pulse to one of the plurality of sub-arrays in response to the sub-array not undergoing the read operation or the write operation.
