Abstract
An integrated memory circuit comprises a plurality of memory cells and access transistors; and a digit line comprising conductive tabs extending from at least one side of a conductive digit line. The use of one digit line allows for a reduction in internal noise and coupling between digit line pairs. The use of one digit line also allows for a reduction in array size.
