WORDLINE BOOST DRIVER

Abstract:

An example apparatus for writing a bit to a memory cell includes wordline driver circuitry configured to generate a first voltage in response to a row access enable signal. The apparatus also includes boost driver circuitry coupled to the wordline driver circuitry. The boost driver circuitry is configured to charge a capacitor using the first voltage and to generate a second voltage using the first voltage and a voltage at the capacitor in response to a boost enable signal. The apparatus also includes a wordline coupled to the memory cell and the wordline driver circuitry. The wordline is configured to output the first voltage or the second voltage to the memory cell.
