Abstract

A memory device includes a storage circuit, a first driving circuit, and a second driving circuit. The storage circuit stores first data and compares the first data and second data. The first driving circuit selectively drives a matching line to a first logic state, depending on a comparison result of the first data and the second data by the storage circuit. The second driving circuit drives the matching line to a second logic state regardless of the comparison result.
