摘要:
An over-driven access method and device for ferroelectric memory. When accessing the data stored in a ferroelectric memory, the invention further provides an over-driven current to slightly reduce/raise the voltages in bit lines BL and BL′ to further enlarge the voltage difference therebetween after having raised the plate-line/bit-line voltage using the plate-line/bit-line driven method.

A random access memory device includes a number of memory cells, with word lines, plate lines, and bit lines coupled to the memory cells. A switch, controlled by a word line, couples one end of the plate line to a first global plate line, while another switch, controlled by a second global plate line, couples the one end of the plate line to a reference voltage. The plate lines are charged by the first global plate line, which improves operational speed of the device and reduces loading of the word lines.

A ferroelectric capacitor memory cell includes two transistors coupled to two ferroelectric capacitors respectively. The two ferroelectric capacitors store complementary polarization states, which defines a single data state of memory cell. The plate line is coupled to one end of the ferroelectric capacitors. The word line is coupled to the gates of the two transistors. The bit lines are coupled to the source/drain of the two transistors. According to the present invention, the disclosed detecting scheme precharges the bit lines to logical one voltage, setting the word line and plate line to logical zero voltage, stepping the word line from the initial logical zero voltage to logical one voltage, stepping the plate line from the initial logical zero voltage to logical one voltage, enabling the sensing amplifier to sense the differential charge on the bit lines, discharging the bit lines to restore the original data.
