    摘要: A memory array having a first port and a second port is disclosed. The memory array includes: a first memory cell, wherein access to the first memory cell through the first port is controlled by a first word line, and access to the first memory cell through the second port is controlled by a second word line; a second memory cell, wherein access to the second memory cell through the first port is controlled by the first word line, and access to the second memory cell through the second port is controlled by the second word line; and a disturb detector, used to generate a disturb detected signal for indicating whether the first memory cell and the second memory cell are accessed at a same time. A memory array having a write assistor is also disclosed.

    摘要: Disclosed herein are related to a memory device. In one aspect, the memory device includes a memory cell, a precharge circuit, a reset voltage control circuit, and a logic control circuit. In one aspect, the precharge circuit is configured to set a voltage of the bit line to a first voltage level. In one aspect, the reset voltage control circuit includes a transistor coupled to the bit line to set the voltage of the bit line to a second voltage level. The transistor can be arranged or operate as a diode. In one aspect, the logic control circuit is configured to cause the reset voltage control circuit to set the voltage of the bit line to the second voltage level during a reset phase and cause the precharge circuit to set the voltage of the bit line to the first voltage level during a precharge phase after the reset phase.
