Systems, devices, and methods are provided for enabling turbo mode for static random access memory (SRAM) devices. A cell circuit is coupled between a bit line pair and configured to perform read or write operations of a memory device. A sense amplifier circuit is coupled between the bit line pair and configured to sense a voltage differential between the bit line pair. A tracking circuit includes a tracking bit line (DBL) and is configured to monitor operation of the cell circuit and send a sense amplifier enable signal to the sense amplifier at a predetermined frequency rate based on a voltage level of the DBL. A turbo circuit is coupled to a turbo signal and configured to modify the voltage of the tracking bit line enabling sending of the sense amplifier enable signal at a rate faster than the predetermined frequency rate.
