Abstract
Embodiments of the present disclosure include techniques for pre-charging an SRAM. A pre-charge signal may be used to apply a pre-charge voltage to bit lines in an SRAM memory bank. Features and advantages of the present disclosure include receiving a pre-charge signal in an SRAM and storing the pre-charge signal. The pre-charge signal may be received and stored on a cycle where the SRAM is performing a memory access. The stored pre-charge signal may be applied on a later cycle. In some embodiments, an SRAM is partitioned into multiple sub-banks, and multiple pre-charge signals are received and stored for different sub-banks. Stored pre-charge signals may be applied to the different sub-banks independently, for example.
