A global to local bit line interface circuit for domino SRAM devices includes a pair of complementary global write bit lines in selective communication with an array of SRAM cells through local write bit lines, the global write bit lines configured to write a selected SRAM cell with data presented on a pair of write data input lines; a pair of complementary global read bit lines in selective communication with the array through local read bit lines, the global read bit lines configured to read data stored in a selected cell and present the read data on a pair of read data output lines; and write control logic configured to control precharging of the global write bit lines independently with respect to the global read bit lines, and wherein a pulse width of write data on the global write bit lines is determined only by a global column select signal.
