Abstract
A circuit includes a signal generating circuit that generates a pre-charge signal based on a clock signal and a column select signal for a column of memory cells associated with the signal generating circuit. A first state of the pre-charge signal depends on a first state of the column select signal, and the first state of the column select signal corresponds to selection of the column of memory cells. The circuit also includes a charge circuit associated with the signal generating circuit and a first data line coupled to the charge circuit. The charge circuit charges the first data line in response to the first state of the pre-charge signal and allows the first data line to float in response to a second state of the pre-charge signal.
