Abstract
A memory device includes a memory array comprising a plurality of memory cells, and control circuitry coupled to the memory array. The control circuitry comprises at least one dummy memory cell, a feedback-based controller having inputs coupled to respective internal nodes of the dummy memory cell, and write signal generation circuitry coupled to the feedback-based controller and configured to provide one or more write signals for controlling writing of data to portions of the memory array. The feedback-based controller generates a reset signal for application to a reset input of the write signal generation circuitry at least in part as a function of a logic level transition delay of a selected one of the first and second internal nodes of the dummy memory cell.
