A circuit includes a memory macro comprising a plurality of memory banks. The circuit includes a first voltage regulator configured to provide a first operation voltage to the memory macro at a first output node. The circuit includes a second voltage regulator configured to provide a second operation voltage to the memory macro at a second output node. The second operation voltage is substantially higher than the first operation voltage. The circuit includes a decoupling capacitor configured to be alternately shared by the first voltage regulator when the memory macro receives the first operation voltage, and by the second voltage regulator when the memory macro receives the second operation voltage.
