Abstract
A sense amplifier arrangement includes a first sense amplifier having a first input and a second input. A second sense amplifier has a first input and a second input. A switching circuit is configured to selectively couple the first input of the first sense amplifier to a first bit line in the array and the second input of the first sense amplifier to a first bit line in the array to selectively couple the first input of the first sense amplifier to the first bit line in the array, the first input of the second sense amplifier to the second bit line in the array, and the second inputs of the first and second sense amplifiers to a reference voltage.
