ABSTRACT:
Methods and apparatuses are discussed for generating a temperature compensated signal, used for example to provide a signal with a delay within a pre-specified range over a range of temperatures to a sense amplifier of a memory array. In response to a start signal, a varying signal is generated. A clock signal causes additional loads of impedance to be coupled to the varying signal, for example via control circuitry generating temperature compensating signals.
