The present disclosure describes techniques and apparatuses for multiport memory architecture. In some aspects serial data is received from a data port and converted to n-bit-wide words of data. The n-bit-wide words of data are then buffered as a k-word-long block of parallel data into a line of a multiline buffer as a block of k*n bits of data. The block of k*n bits of data is then transmitted to a multiport memory via a write bus effective to write the block of k*n bits of data to the multiport memory.
