Abstract
An embodiment of the invention provides a method of separating an early clock pulse and a late clock pulse into two different latches, wherein the early clock pulse is generated through a bit line. In response to the early clock pulse rising, a first data waveform is sent to a fourth data waveform. In response to a third data waveform rising, an early precharge is turned off. In response to the turning off of the early precharge and in response to a fifth data waveform dropping, an eighth data waveform rises if the first data waveform has a value of 1. In response to a sixth data waveform rising, a first pulse latch is opened.
