Memory circuits, systems, and methods for providing bit line equalization voltages

A memory circuit includes at least one memory cell for storing a charge representative of a datum. The memory cell is coupled with a word line and a first bit line. At least one bit line equalization transistor is coupled between the first bit line and a second bit line. A bit line equalization circ...

Zusammenfassung:A memory circuit includes at least one memory cell for storing a charge representative of a datum. The memory cell is coupled with a word line and a first bit line. At least one bit line equalization transistor is coupled between the first bit line and a second bit line. A bit line equalization circuit is coupled with the bit line equalization transistor. The bit line equalization circuit is configured for providing a pulse to the bit line equalization transistor to substantially equalize voltages of the first bit line and the second bit line during a standby period before an access cycle of the memory cell.
