Abstract

See full text

The present invention uses two pairs of cross coupled n-channel sense amplifier transistors attached between two electrically balanced halves of a bit line. Disposed between each pair of cross coupled n-channel sense amplifier transistors is only one pair of p-channel restore transistors attached between the bit line and complement bit line. Furthermore, on the bit line and complement bit line, between one pair of cross coupled n-channel sense amplifier transistors and the pair of p-channel restore transistors, are depletion type isolating transistors that further isolate halves of the bit line and complement bit line.
