Abstract

A high-speed block id encoder circuit using dynamic logic includes a plurality of input signal lines received from a memory array and a plurality of output signal lines. A first portion of the encoder circuit pre-charges the plurality of output signal lines to a first state. A plurality of transistors coupled together in a single level receives the input signals and discharges the appropriate output signal lines to a second state based on the input signals. The signals produced on the output lines provide an encoded output identifying which one of the plurality of input signal lines is asserted.
