Abstract
According to some aspects, a memory includes a bit line discharge circuit and a bit line coupled to the bit line discharge circuit. The bit line discharge circuit includes a transistor, a control branch, and a first discharge branch. A gate of the transistor is connected with the control branch. One of a source or a drain of the transistor is connected with the first discharge branch. Another of the source or the drain of the transistor is connected with the bit line. The control branch is configured to turn on the transistor. The first discharge branch is configured to discharge the bit line at a set discharge speed when the transistor is turned on.
