ABSTRACT:
A system and method is disclosed for saving power dissipated during the recharge of large arrays, such a domino SRAMS, by activating only the recharge circuits for the parts of the array that was accessed during the previous cycle. This is accomplished by intercepting the recharge signals and deactivating the signals for the non-accessed portions of the array.
