Abstract
Techniques for sensing a semiconductor memory device are disclosed. In one particular exemplary embodiment, the techniques may be realized as an apparatus including a memory cell array comprising a plurality of memory cells. The apparatus may also include a first data sense amplifier circuitry including an amplifier transistor having a first region coupled to at least one of the plurality of memory cells via a bit line. The apparatus may further include a data sense amplifier latch circuitry including a first input node coupled to the data sense amplifier circuitry via a second region of the amplifier transistor.
