Abstract

A sense amplifier circuit implements a sense scheme using sense amplifier feedback control to disconnect the bit lines from the sense circuit during the read operation after the bit line signals are sensed. In this manner, read disturbance during the read operation is prevented. In some embodiments, the sense amplifier circuit includes a pair of pass gates to couple a pair of differential bit lines to a sense circuit. The sense amplifier circuit further includes a feedback control circuit to open the pair of pass gates in response to at least one of the sensed signals at the sense circuit changing logical state. The pair of pass gates are opened to disconnect the pair of differential bit lines from the sense circuit.
