Abstract
A technique to generate timing control for an SRAM circuit operating with dual power supplies is provided. A voltage signal is generated by a programmable local clock buffer that receives power from a first voltage level. The voltage signal is shifted higher by a level shifter that receives power from both the first voltage level and a second voltage level. The voltage signal is delayed by a delay clock chopper circuit that receives power from the second voltage level. The delay clock chopper circuit includes a programmable pulse width variation (PWVAR) circuit that varies the pulse width of the voltage signal. The PWVAR circuit receives power from the second voltage level. The voltage signal drives a global bitline of the SRAM. The voltage signal has timing sensitive to both the first and second voltage levels. The voltage signal has its pulse width sensitive to the second voltage level.
