Abstract
Circuits, systems, and methods are described herein for generating a boost voltage for a write operation of a memory cell. In one embodiment, a boost circuit includes a first inverter and a second inverter, each configured to invert a write signal. The boost circuit also includes a transistor and a capacitor. The transistor is coupled to an output of the first inverter. The transistor is configured to charge a capacitor based on the write signal and provide a supply voltage to a write driver. The capacitor is coupled to an output of the second inverter. The capacitor is configured to generate and provide a delta voltage to the write driver.
