<p>An FET decode circuit having a bootstrap capacitor connected across the gate and source of an input field effect transistor (FET) in which no current flows through the input FET when the bootstrap capacitor is discharged. Means, preferably an FET with its current flow electrodes connected across the bootstrap capacitor, is provided for completing a discharge path parallel to the boot-strap capacitor and internal to the decode circuit. A discharge path independent of the input field effect transistor is so provided. A memory accessing means including a plurality of the decode circuits may discharge the bootstrap capacitors of unselected decode circuits without pulling current through a memory drive circuit to which the decode circuits are connected.</p> |
