  • Patent number: 10789997
    Abstract: An input/output multiplexer is provided and coupled to a memory array through bit lines. The input/output multiplexer includes a bit-line amplifier, a level-raising circuit, and a sensing amplifier. The bit-line amplifier amplifies a voltage difference between voltage levels of first and second bit lines in a read mode. In a first selection period of the read mode, according to the amplified voltage difference, a voltage level of a first local-data terminal of the bit-line amplifier is initially at an initial level, and a voltage level of a second local-data terminal thereof decreases from the initial level toward that of a low supply voltage. The level-raising circuit raises the voltage level of the first local-data terminal from the initial level in the first selection period. The sensing amplifier generates readout data according to the raised voltage level of the first local-data terminal and the voltage level of the second local-data terminal.
