Abstract
A memory such as for a high-speed microprocessor cache includes a first bank of bitcells and a second bank of bitcells. The banks are read from in a pipelined fashion with respect to cycles of a system clock signal such that a first read operation to the first bank is initiated with respect to a first cycle of the system clock signal whereas a second read operation to the second bank is initiated with respect to a second cycle of the system clock that is consecutive to the first clock cycle. A multiplexer selects between latched bits from the read operations responsive to cycles of the system clock signal.
