Abstract

A dual port digital memory system, which includes integral memory sequencing circuitry, is controlled by a bit-serial address and control signal. The address and control signal, which includes a data read address, a data write address and a control value, is serially loaded into a shift register. The address sequencing circuitry loads the read and write address values into integral read and write address registers and, based on the control value, initiates respective read and/or write operations.
