Abstract

A circuit is in a memory macro and comprises a write path, a read path, a selection circuit, and a clock generator circuit. The write path includes a first signal generated based on a first edge of a clock signal in a write operation of the memory macro. The read path includes a second signal generated based on a first edge of the clock signal in a read operation of the memory macro. The selection circuit is configured to select the first signal as a third signal in the write operation of the memory macro, and to select the second signal as the third signal in the read operation of the memory macro. The clock generator circuit is configured to generate a second edge of the clock signal in the write operation or in the read operation based on the third signal.
