ABSTRACT:
An apparatus and method for producing dummy data is based on timing paths co-located with the address/data paths of the memory. An output clock generator uses the dummy data. The technique for producing dummy data is particularly important for memory systems in which the output of memory cells do not normally provide large voltage swings, making them less practical for self timing approaches to dummy data generation.
