The first MOS sense amplifier has a first pair of MOS transistors of first conductivity type therein, which are electrically coupled across the pair of sense bit lines. This electrically coupling is provided so that each of the first pair of MOS transistors has a first source/drain terminal electrically connected to a corresponding one of the pair of sense bit lines and the second source/drain terminals of the first pair of MOS transistors are electrically connected together. The first pair of MOS transistors of first conductivity type is configured to have different threshold voltages or support different threshold voltage biasing.

    摘要: Provided are a bitline driving circuit of an integrated circuit memory that enhances a precharge scheme and a sense amplification scheme and a bitline driving method. In the bitline driving circuit, a new scheme of precharging the bitlines to voltages greater than or smaller than a voltage VCCA/2 using an auxiliary circuit is used to increase a gate-source voltage of transistors included in each sense amplification circuit. Also, when cell data is 1 and 0, a dummy cell can maintain a voltage difference between the bitlines BL and BLB generated after charge sharing. Furthermore, a sense amplification circuit, which is controlled by an offset control circuit, can remove a threshold voltage offset between the transistors included in each sense amplification circuit. At this time, an auxiliary circuit is used to stabilize the voltage difference.
