ABSTRACT:
A memory device is described which includes latching wordline driver circuits. The wordline driver circuits include a latch responsive to phase lines of an address tree decode configuration. The latch has been described as a single latching transistor which allows transitions in shared row address lines while maintaining an active wordline signal. The latching wordline driver is particularly useful in multi-bank memory devices where row address lines are shared between the memory banks.
