Abstract

A circuit, for controlling a write operation during which data from data lines is written to a memory cell, is used with a memory cell of the type that is connected to a row line and a first column line. An amplifier is connected across the first column line and a column line complimentary to the first column line. The column lines have a capacitance associated therewith. The circuit includes a control circuit for generating switching control signals. Switches are provided which are positioned in the column lines and are responsive to the switching control signals for selectively isolating at least a portion of the column lines during a predetermined portion of the write operation.
