发明名称 Method and apparatus for reducing leakage in bit lines of a memory device
摘要 A method and system to allow reduction of leakage in the bit lines of a memory device. In addition, minimal delay to the bit lines is introduced by the method and system. The memory device has a plurality of bit lines and a plurality of nodes to facilitate access of a respective one of the bit lines. A logic circuit that has a plurality of transistors and each transistor is coupled with the respective one of the bit lines and with a respective one of the nodes to reduce leakage of the bit lines when the transistors are deactivated. A just in time pre-charge method is also used to avoid the requirement of an additional pre-charge device to prevent excessive charge sharing while enabling the reduction of leakage of the bit lines.
