Abstract
Disclosed herein is a device that includes: a sense amplifier circuit activated in response to a first control signal; a first global bit line coupled to the sense amplifier circuit; a first local bit line; a first transistor electrically coupled between the first global bit line and the first local bit line, the first transistor being rendered conductive in response to a second control signal; a first memory cell; a first cell transistor electrically coupled between the first local bit line and the first memory cell, the first cell transistor being rendered conductive in response to a third control signal; and a control circuit producing the first, second, and third control signals such that the second control signal is produced after producing the third control signal and the first control signal is produced after producing the second and third control signals.
