Abstract:
Methods, systems, and devices for a memory device with multiplexed digit lines are described. In some cases, a memory cell of the memory device may include a storage component and a selection component that includes two transistors. A first transistor may be coupled with a word line and a second transistor may be coupled with a select line to selectively couple the memory cell with a digit line. The selection component, in conjunction with a digit line multiplexing component, may support a sense component common to a set of digit lines. In some cases, the digit line of the set may be coupled with the sense component during a read operation, while the remaining digit lines of the set are isolated from the sense component.
