Abstract

See full text

Embodiments include systems and methods for faster memory read-out using a combined read-select circuit. A novel read-select circuit is described, which, when enabled for reading, concurrently reads its respective input line and selects its value for read-out by the circuit. This can reduce delays and unnecessary toggling resulting from separate read and select circuits. Some implementations also include a multi-global-line architecture that can reduce the number of read stages in the memory read-out circuitry, thereby further reducing read-out delays. Accordingly, embodiments can be faster and more efficient than many traditional implementations without relying on an increase in power consumption or clock speed.
