Abstract

Two pairs of bit lines are associated with each column of memory cells in a static random access memory (RAM) to provide separate paths for reading and writing operations or to provide a RAM having dual read ports. One pair of bit lines is connected to the emitters of the cross-coupled transistors in each cell to permit write operations to be carried out. The second pair of bit lines is connected to the collectors of clamping transistors which limit the collector voltage of the cell transistors, to permit data to be read.
