Abstract
A memory device (e.g., an SRAM) is configurable to be operated in an asynchronous or a synchronous mode in accordance with a value stored in a control register thereof. In addition to asynchronous and synchronous operating modes, additional features such burst mode operations, including asynchronous burst mode operations and/or synchronous burst mode operations (e.g., linear sequential and/or interleaved burst operations); the number of pipeline stages of an output path of the SRAM; and/or the number of data hold cycles for synchronous operation of the SRAM are configurable in accordance with additional values stored in the control register.
