Word Line Precharging Systems and Methods - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 17898923 titled 'Word Line Precharging Systems and Methods
Simplified Explanation
- Memory system can boost signal to precharge word line - Memory device includes voltage shaping circuitry and memory controller - Controller adjusts characteristic of word line select control signal - Signal is adjusted before being transmitted to memory cell
Potential Applications
This technology can be applied in various memory devices such as DRAM, SRAM, and flash memory to improve performance and efficiency.
Problems Solved
- Enhances memory system performance by selectively boosting signal to precharge word line - Improves overall efficiency of memory devices by adjusting characteristics of word line select control signal
Benefits
- Faster memory access times - Increased memory system efficiency - Enhanced overall performance of memory devices
Original Abstract Submitted
Systems and methods described herein may enable a memory system to selectively provide a signal boost to a word line to precharge the word line. A memory device may include voltage shaping circuitry and a memory controller. The memory controller may cause the voltage shaping circuitry to adjust a characteristic of a word line select control signal transmitted via the word line prior to the word line select control signal being transmitted to a memory cell.
