Abstract
Memory might include a non-volatile memory cell, a capacitance selectively connected to the non-volatile memory cell, a field-effect transistor having a channel capacitively coupled to an electrode of the capacitance, and a controller for access of the non-volatile memory cell configured to cause the memory to increase a voltage level of the electrode of the capacitance, selectively discharge the voltage level of the electrode of the capacitance through the non-volatile memory cell responsive to a data state stored in the non-volatile memory cell, and determine whether the field-effect transistor is activated in response to a remaining voltage level of the electrode of the capacitance.
