    摘要: A memory includes a memory array and a single-ended sense amplifier circuit. The memory array includes wordlines, bitlines, and memory cells. The bitlines include a first bitline, routed on a first metal layer but not a second metal layer, and a second bitline, routed on the first metal layer and the second metal layer. Each of the memory cells is coupled to one of the wordlines. The memory cells include a first group of memory cells, coupled to the first bitline, and a second group of memory cells, coupled to the second bitline, where the first group of memory cells and the second group of memory cells are located at a same column. The single-ended sense amplifier circuit performs a read operation upon a target memory cell through single-ended sensing when a selected wordline is enabled.

    摘要: A three-dimensional memory device (100, 200), such as 3D AND Flash memory device, includes a first page buffer (111, 211), a second page buffer (112, 212), a sense amplifier (130, 230), a first path selector (121, 221), and a second path selector (122, 222). The first page buffer (111, 211) and the second page buffer (112, 212) are respectively configured to temporarily store a first write-in data (WD1) and a second write-in data (WD2). The first path selector (121, 221) couples the sense amplifier (130, 230) or the first page buffer (111, 211) to a first global bit line (GBL1) according to a first control signal (CT1). The second path selector (122, 222) couples the sense amplifier (130, 230) or the second page buffer (112, 212) to a second global bit line (GBL2) according to a second control signal (CT2).

    摘要: A computer readable memory includes a circuit layer, a multilayer memory stacked over the circuit layer to form a memory box, the memory box comprising a bottom surface interfacing with the circuit layer and four side surfaces, and a first switching crossbar array disposed on a first side of the memory box. A plurality of vias connects the circuit layer to the first switching crossbar layer. The first switching crossbar array accepts signals from the plurality of vias and selectively connects a crossbar in the multilayer memory to the circuit layer. A method for addressing multilayer memory is also provided.

    摘要: Power reduction is accomplished in an electronic memory by segmenting portions of the memory and only enabling certain memory portions depending upon where the memory is to be accessed. In one embodiment, bit lines and/or word lines are segmented using latch repeaters to control address selection with respect to single-bit and/or single-word segments beyond a first single-bit and/or single-word segment. The latch repeaters are, in one embodiment, allowed to remain in their operated/non-operated state at the completion of a memory read/write cycle. This then avoids successive enabling pulses when the same segment is accessed on successive cycles.
