Abstract
Apparatuses and methods for compensating for source voltage is described. An example apparatus includes a source coupled to a memory cell and a read-write circuit coupled to the memory cell. The apparatus further includes a sense current generator coupled to a node of the source and to the read-write circuit, the sense current generator configured to control provision of a sense current by the read-write circuit responsive to a voltage of the node of the source.
