摘要: An integrated circuit of a memory is provided. The integrated circuit comprises a first data driving circuit and a transmitting transistor. The first data driving circuit outputs a first data voltage to a first node. The transmitting transistor is coupled between the first node and a second node. When the transmitting transistor receives a bias voltage and the voltage level of the first node is a first voltage level, the transmitting transistor makes the voltage level of the second node to be set as a third voltage level, third voltage level is close to or substantially equal to the first voltage level. When the transmitting transistor receives the bias voltage and the voltage level of the first node is the second voltage level, the voltage level of the second node is independently of the voltage level of the first node.

摘要: An integrated circuit includes a memory and peripheral circuits with a temperature sensor used to automatically adjust operating voltages. The temperature sensor includes a reference circuit that generates a first reference with a first non-zero temperature coefficient and a second reference with a second temperature coefficient having a different magnitude than the first non-zero temperature coefficient. A detector circuit on the integrated circuit, having temperature and process variation compensation, converts a difference between the first and second references into a digital signal indicating temperature on the integrated circuit.
