Abstract
Methods, systems, and devices for differential amplifier schemes for sensing memory cells are described. In one example, an apparatus may include a memory cell, a differential amplifier having a first input node, a second input node, and an output node that is coupled with the first input node via a first capacitor, and a second capacitor coupled with the first input node. The apparatus may include a controller configured to cause the apparatus to bias the first capacitor, couple the memory cell with the first input node, and generate, at the output node, a sense signal based at least in part on biasing the first capacitor and coupling the memory cell with the first input node. The apparatus may also include a sense component configured to determine a logic state stored by the memory cell based at least in part on the sense signal.
