Abstract:
Memory apparatuses and methods for low power current mode sense amplification are disclosed. An example memory apparatus may include a current mode sense amplifier and a current circuit. The current mode sense amplifier may be configured to provide an output current. The current circuit may comprise a bias generator that is configured to generate a bias signal as well as a current control circuit coupled to both the current mode sense amplifier and the bias generator. The current control circuit may be configured to receive both the output current and the bias signal and control the output current based, at least in part, on the bias signal.
