Abstract

An example is a circuit including a memory output block having a single bit width output node. The memory output block includes a memory bank and a logic inversion circuit. The memory bank is configured to output a read datum. The logic inversion circuit is associated with the memory bank. An input node of the logic inversion circuit is electrically coupled to the memory bank to receive the read datum. The logic inversion circuit is configured to output an output datum on an output node of the logic inversion circuit. The logic inversion circuit is configured to obtain the output datum by selecting either one of an inverted version of the read datum or a non-inverted version of the read datum received from the memory bank based on a column of the memory bank from which the read datum is read.
