FAST ACCESS DRAM WITH 2 CELL-PER-BIT, COMMON WORD LINE, ARCHITECTURE

In a system, a 1T DRAM a decoder drives word lines, each driving enable transistors of true and complement DRAM cells; true DRAM cells being coupled to true bit lines, with complement DRAM cells coupled to complement bit lines. Differential sense amplifiers each receive true and complement bit lines. In a method of writing and reading DRAM, a DRAM is provided with common word lines feeding true and complement cells attached to true and complement bit lines. Writing the DRAM includes applying data to true bit lines with complement data on complement bit lines; then pulsing a selected word line to write data into true and complement cells. Reading requires pulsing precharge lines to reset true and complement bit lines; selecting a single word line to read the true and complement cells onto true and complement bit lines; and sensing differences between true and complement bit lines.
