Abstract

A sense amplifier comprising a data refresh amplifier for supplying voltages to true and complementary bit lines in response to a first control signal to amplify true and complementary data on the true and complementary bit lines, respectively, a first transistor for amplifying current of the true data on the true bit line in response to a second control signal and transferring the amplified true data to a true input/output line, a second transistor for amplifying current of the complementary data on the complementary bit line in response to the second control signal and transferring the amplified complementary data to a complementary input/output line, a first switch for selectively forming a current path between the true input/output line and the true bit line, and a second switch for selectively forming a current path between the complementary input/output line and the complementary bit line.
