Abstract
Some embodiments include an integrated assembly having a memory array over a base. First sense-amplifier-circuitry is associated with the base and includes sense amplifiers directly under the memory array. Vertically-extending digit lines are associated with the memory array and are coupled with the first sense-amplifier-circuitry. Second sense-amplifier-circuitry is associated with the base and is offset from the first sense-amplifier-circuitry. Control circuitry is configured to selectively couple the digit lines to either a voltage supply terminal or to the second sense-amplifier-circuitry.
