Abstract:
An integrated level-shifter and memory clock is disclosed that minimizes delay of voltage level-shifting from an external clock on a first logic supply voltage to an internal clock on a higher array supply voltage that is pulse-width independent of the external clock used to generate the internal clock. The generation of the internal clock on the higher array supply voltages is accomplished in two stages of logic. An array-tracking timing delay circuit mimics access delay to generate a MRST_P to reset the internal clock on the higher array supply voltage.
