Abstract

Methods, systems, and devices related to multiplexed signal development in a memory device are described. In one example, an apparatus in accordance with the described techniques may include a set of memory cells, a sense amplifier, and a set of signal development components each associated with one or more memory cells of the set of memory cells. The apparatus may further include a selection component, such as a signal development component multiplexer, that is coupled with the set of signal development components. The selection component may be configured to selectively couple a selected signal development component of the set of signal development components with the sense amplifier, which may support examples of signal development during overlapping time intervals.
