Abstract
A device includes a memory array formed on a front side of a substrate. The memory array is accessible through a plurality of bit lines. The memory device includes a switch transistor formed on the front side of the substrate. The switch transistor is operatively coupled to the plurality of bit lines. The memory device includes a first capacitor formed on a back side of the substrate. The first capacitor is configured to reduce a voltage level present on at least one of the plurality of bit lines, in response to the switch transistor being turned off.
