Abstract:
A method and device using bitline-bitline capacitance between adjacent bitlines to boost seed voltage in a memory device are provided. The method may include a precharge phase, a boost phase, an equalize phase, and a lock in phase. In one embodiment, the method may include boosting the seed voltage twice. The bitlines may be divided into one or more segments.
