Abstract
A portion of a memory may include a first memory block, including a first memory cell coupled to a first memory data line, a second memory block, including a second memory cell coupled to a second memory data line, and a latch, having a first terminal and a second terminal. The portion of the memory may further include a first N-channel transistor, having a first current electrode coupled to the first terminal of the latch, having a second current electrode coupled to a first power supply voltage, and having a control electrode coupled to the first memory data line. The portion of the memory may further include a second N-channel transistor, having a first current electrode coupled to the first terminal of the latch, having a second current electrode coupled to the first power supply voltage, and having a control electrode coupled to the second memory data line.
