Abstract

A sense amplifier circuit includes first and second lines and first and second inverters. Each inverter includes an input terminal, an output terminal, and a power source terminal. A second signal line potential is supplied to the first inverter input terminal. The second inverter input terminal is connected to the first inverter input terminal. A first signal line potential is supplied to the second inverter input terminal. A first switch transistor is connected to the first inverter power source terminal and has a gate connected to the second signal line. A switch second transistor is connected to the second inverter power source terminal and has a gate connected to the first signal line.
