Abstract

A method in a computer-aided design system for generating a functional design model of a static random access memory is described herein. The method comprises generating a functional representation of a first local evaluation logic coupled to a first set of consecutive global bit lines (GBLs) and a first set of local bit lines (LBLs), the first local evaluation logic comprising a plurality of devices. The method further comprises generating a functional representation of a second local evaluation logic communicatively coupled to the first local evaluation logic via the devices; the second local evaluation logic is coupled to a second set of consecutive GBLs and a second set of LBLs. In addition, the second set of consecutive GBLs consecutive to the first set of consecutive GBLs, the first and second evaluation logics to generate signals from the LBLs such that one GBL is to be active at any point in a read or write cycle and the other GBLs are not concurrently active.
