摘要： A bit-line voltage generator is provided. The bit-line voltage generator includes a discharge enhanced bias source and a switch unit. The switch unit includes a clamp transistor having a source, a gate connected to the discharge enhanced bias source, and a drain receiving a voltage; a switch transistor having a gate receiving a control signal, a drain connected to the source of the clamp transistor, and a source connected to a memory array, wherein a parasitic capacitor exists between the gate and the source of the clamp transistor; a resistor having a first terminal connected to the drain of the switch transistor, and a second terminal connected to ground; and a capacitor having a first terminal connected to the drain of the switch transistor, and a second terminal connected to ground, wherein a charge in the parasitic capacitor, when the switch transistor is turned on, is almost identical to that when the switch transistor is turned off, so that a couple effect between the switch unit and the discharge enhanced bias source is reduced, thereby stabilizing a bias applied to the memory array.

摘要： A digital to analog converter (DAC) has a plurality of transistor-resistor units connected in a string. Each of the transistor-resistor units of the DAC has a pair of transistors that are turned on/off by a pair of complementary control signals. Since the two transistors of each transistor-resistor unit are positioned symmetrically, an equivalent resistance would be determined precisely according to received digital codes, such that an output voltage of the DAC could be adjusted precisely based on the equivalent resistance.
