Abstract

A memory device may include a digit line, a ferroelectric memory cell coupled with the digit line, a first capacitor including a first node and a second node, the first node coupled with the digit line using a first path and the second node coupled with the digit line using a second path different from the first path, and a switching component positioned in the second path and coupled with the second node of the first capacitor and the digit line. The switching component may selectively couple the second node of the first capacitor with the digit line. In some cases, the memory device may also include a second capacitor coupled with the digit line and the second node of the first capacitor.
