Abstract
A method for passing data from an input to an output of a domino read access path in domino read SRAM memory including receiving at least a portion of the input data from a latch configuration, gating a global precharge signal, gating a bit select circuitry signal, driving the input data statically through a transmission gate of a static bypass multiplexer to the global dot of the domino read SRAM memory, initiating a write around cycle signal, offsetting the write around signal input into the static bypass multiplexer and the precharge signal by at least one phase using a wave shaper, driving the input data from the global dot through a keeper circuit, and driving the input data from the keeper circuit to at least one NAND gate of a pair of cross-coupled NAND gates, the pair of cross-coupled NAND gates being configured in a transparent state.
