ABSTRACT:
A pipeline memory access circuit has a memory address buffer for buffering memory addresses. The buffer has a first and a second pass gate, and each of the pass gates has a pair of complementary metal-oxide-semiconductor (CMOS) transistors. An apparatus is provided for selectively switching the buffer between an asynchronous and a synchronous mode of operation. The switching apparatus includes circuits for alternately opening and closing the first and second pass gates when the buffer is in its synchronous mode of operation and for simultaneously opening both of the pass gates when the buffer is in its asynchronous mode of operation.
