    摘要: A write assist circuit is provided. The write assist circuit includes a transistor switch coupled between a bit line voltage node of a cell array and a ground node. An invertor is operative to receive a boost signal responsive to a write enable signal. An output of the invertor is coupled to a gate of the transistor switch. The write assist circuit further includes a capacitor having a first end coupled to the bit line voltage node and a second end coupled to the gate node. The capacitor is operative to drive a bit line voltage of the bit line voltage node to a negative value from the ground voltage in response to the boost signal.
