Abstract

1. 청구범위에 기재된 발명이 속한 기술분야1. TECHNICAL FIELD OF THE INVENTION

본 발명은 데이타비트를 감지증폭하는 센스앰프회로에 관한 것이다.The present invention relates to a sense amplifier circuit for sensing and amplifying data bits.

2. 발명이 해결하려고 하는 기술적 과제2. The technical problem to be solved by the invention

종래에는 배리어 트랜지통과한 전압을 엔형센스앰프의 제어전압으로 사용하다보니 낮은 전원전압상태에서 오동작이 빈번히 발생하였다. 본 발명에서는 센스앰프에서 발생하는 오동작을 방지하면서 고속을 감지동작을 수행하는 센스앰프를 구현하고자 한다.Conventionally, since the voltage passed through the barrier transition is used as the control voltage of the N-type sense amplifier, malfunction occurs frequently at a low power supply voltage. The present invention is to implement a sense amplifier for performing a high-speed sensing operation while preventing a malfunction occurring in the sense amplifier.

3. 발명의 해결방법의 요지3. Summary of Solution to Invention

배리어 트랜지스터를 통과하기전의 비트라인쌍에 인가된 높은 전압을 엔형센스앰프의 제어전압으로 사용하므로서 오동작이 방지되면서 고속으로 정확하게 감지증폭동작을 수행하는 센스앰프가 구현된다.By using a high voltage applied to the pair of bit lines before passing through the barrier transistor as a control voltage of the N-type sense amplifier, a sense amplifier is implemented to perform a sense amplifier operation at high speed and accurately while preventing malfunction.

4. 발명의 중요한 용도4. Important uses of the invention

낮은 전원전압에서 오동작이 줄어들고 고속으로 정확하게 감지증폭동작을 수행하는 센스앰프가 제공되므로서, 고속동작하는 고집적 다이나믹 랜덤 액세스 메모리의 전반적인 신뢰성을 높이게 된다.A sense amplifier is provided that reduces malfunctions at low supply voltages and performs accurate sense amplification at high speeds, thereby increasing the overall reliability of high-speed, highly integrated dynamic random access memories.
