Abstract:
A memory sense amplifier is configurable on command between a current-sensing mode and a voltage-sensing mode. The sense amplifier is intended, in its current-sensing configuration, to read a datum stored in a memory cell connected to the amplifier, and is intended, in its voltage-sensing configuration, to read a datum stored in a bit-line latch connected to the amplifier.
