Abstract
The invention relates to a circuit configuration for equalizing different voltages on line runs in integrated semiconductor circuits, where the bit line and the plate line have a voltage equalization transistor provided between them which, in normal operation of the semiconductor circuit, can be switched to low impedance by a control signal in order to equalize the different voltages on the lines.
