Abstract

A multi-port memory is provided that supports collision between a read port and a write port to the same multi-port bitcell. A sense amplifier reads a data bit from a multi-port bitcell when a write port to the multi-port bitcell is addressed during a system clock signal. Should a read port to the multi-port bitcell be addressed during the same system clock signal, a multiplexer selects for an output bit from the sense amplifier.
