Multiple discharge capable bit line

A bit line that has a feedback path from the bit line to a storage cell on the bit line is provided. The feedback path allows the bit line to discharge through a discharge device that is connected to a non-discharging local bit line. Further, a discharge device capable of discharging a global bit li...

Zusammenfassung:A bit line that has a feedback path from the bit line to a storage cell on the bit line is provided. The feedback path allows the bit line to discharge through a discharge device that is connected to a non-discharging local bit line. Further, a discharge device capable of discharging a global bit line even when a storage cell connected to the discharge device is not being evaluated is provided. Further, a method to perform a memory array operation by discharging a bit line using multiple discharge devices is provided.
