Adaptive read scheme for configuration SRAMs in a programmable device

Abstract:

An example read address generation circuit for a static random access memory (SRAM) cell includes an operational amplifier having a non-inverting input coupled to a reference voltage, a memory emulation circuit having an output coupled to an inverting input of the operational amplifier and a control input coupled to an output of the operational amplifier, and a multiplexer having a first input coupled to receive a constant read voltage, a second input coupled to the output of the operational amplifier, and an output coupled to supply a read address voltage to the SRAM cell.
