Abstract:
A memory includes a memory cell coupled to a data line. A sense amplifier is coupled to the data line. A power supply node has a first voltage. The first voltage is provided to the sense amplifier. A charge pump circuit is coupled to the sense amplifier. The charge pump circuit is configured to provide a second voltage to the sense amplifier when a read operation is performed.
