Abstract

A memory cell for storing data having at least three logic states includes a pair of storage devices and third-level storage and refresh circuitry coupled to a pair of storage nodes. The storage devices maintain multi-level signals representative of first and second logic states at the pair of storage nodes. To store a third logic state, the third-level storage and refresh circuitry maintain the multi-level signals at both storage nodes at substantially equal intermediate levels.
