Abstract: Embodiments of the disclosure are drawn to apparatuses and methods for plate coupled sense amplifiers. An example embodiment may include a sense amplifier which may sense a voltage from a memory cell. The sense amplifier may also monitor a change in the voltage, and determine a logical value of the memory cell based on the time when the voltage reaches a trigger voltage. The memory cell may be coupled to a plate with a plate voltage, wherein a change in the plate voltage determines the change of the voltage from the memory cell.
