Abstract
A circuit for energizing a memory drive line depending on the state of a control signal and the states of two complementary clocks uses a depletion mode MOS coupling device rather than the conventional enhancement mode device used in such cases, and energizes the memory line with a higher voltage than possible in the prior art and at better rise and fall times.
