Systems and methods involving multi-bank, dual-pipe memory circuitry

Abstract:

Multi-bank, dual-pipe SRAM systems, methods, processes of operating such SRAMs, and/or methods of fabricating multi-bank, dual-pipe SRAM are disclosed. For example, one illustrative multi-bank, dual-pipe SRAM may comprise features for capturing read and write addresses, splitting and/or combining them via one or more splitting/combining processes, and/or bussing them to the SRAM memory banks, where they may be read and written to a particular bank. Illustrative multi-bank, dual-pipe SRAMs and methods herein may also comprise features for capturing two beats of write data, splitting and/or combining them via one or more splitting/combining processes, and bussing them to each SRAM bank, where they may be split/combined/recombined via one or more processes to write data to particular memory bank(s).
