ABSTRACT:
A circuit for reducing current leakage in a logic circuit such as a write driver circuit in a memory array is disclosed. The current leakage reducing circuit includes a data line configured to be set to a predetermined voltage, a data drive circuit, and an enable circuit. The enable circuit is coupled to the data line and the data drive circuit, and is configured to enable the data line to accept a data value from the data drive circuit. The invention also includes a current leakage prevention circuit, coupled to the enable circuit, and configured to substantially reduce leakage from the data line through the enable circuit when the enable circuit is not enabled.
