    摘要: A memory system having a selectable configuration for sense amplifiers is included. The memory system can include bit cells and a switch module coupled to the bit cell and to a first portion of a sense amplifier. The switch module can connect, disconnect or cross couple the bit cell to the sense amplifier based on a test for the input offset voltage of first portion of the sense amplifier. A similar configuration can be implemented by a second portion of the sense amplifier. The system can also include a programmer module to configure a setting of the switch module and can include a column select module to couple the bit cells to the sense amplifiers based on what column of bit cell is to be read. Other embodiments are also disclosed.

    摘要: Described is an apparatus for self-induced reduction in write minimum supply voltage for a memory element. The apparatus comprises: a memory element having cross-coupled inverters coupled to a first supply node; a power device coupled to the first supply node and a second supply node, the second supply node coupled to power supply; and an access device having a gate terminal coupled to a word-line, a first terminal coupled to the memory element, and a second terminal coupled to a bit-line which is operable to be pre-discharged to a logical low level prior to write operation.
