Abstract

Various implementations described herein refer to an integrated circuit having dummy wordline driver circuitry coupled to a dummy wordline and dummy bitline pulldown circuitry coupled between a dummy bitline and the dummy wordline. The integrated circuit may include dummy wordline tracking circuitry coupled to the dummy wordline between the dummy wordline driver circuitry and the dummy bitline pulldown circuitry. The dummy wordline tracking circuitry may have one or more variable capacitors that are coupled between the dummy wordline and a variable voltage source.
