Abstract
Embodiments relate to semiconductor devices and methods for fabricating semiconductor devices. According to embodiments, a semiconductor device may include a bit line and a bit line bar. The device may also include a precharge controller that may generate a precharge control signal, and NMOS transistors and PMOS transistors to precharge the bit line and the bit line bar in response to the precharge control signal. According to embodiments, a precharge speed of a bit line in a semiconductor device may be improved and an operating cycle time of a memory device may also be improved.
