  • Publication number: 20240071431
    Abstract: Systems and method for sensing an accessed voltage value associated with a memory cell is described. In different embodiments, a memory array may include a different number of sense components. Moreover, each sense component may receive latching signals to latch the accessed voltage value of memory cells of the memory array based on different timings. For example, the memory array may latch digit line voltages of memory cells positioned farther from a respective word line driver at a later time based on a latching signal with a higher delay. Such memory arrays may include circuitry to receive and/or generate the delayed latching signals as well as selection circuitry for latching the digit line voltages based on a selected delayed latching signals.

  • Publication number: 20240071456
    Abstract: Systems and method for sensing an accessed voltage value associated with a memory cell is described. In different embodiments, a memory array may include a different number of sense amplifiers. Moreover, each sense amplifier may include capacitors with different capacitance values to compensate for a difference in received charges associated with a similar memory state caused by various circuit delays. For example, farther memory cells from a word line driver may receive activation signals with higher delays which in turn may result in delayed activation. As such, the sense amplifiers may include capacitors with varying capacitance values to compensate for an amount charge received at a latching time caused by delayed provision of charges associated with the targeted memory states.
