Abstract
A write control circuit and method for an asynchronous SRAM that minimizes the write address hold time required to prevent data from being written to incorrect addresses in the memory. The write control circuit temporarily disables a write circuit in the memory whenever the memory address changes. The delay of the write control circuit from input to output is shorter than the delay of a decoder in the memory.
