ABSTRACT:
A balancing circuit which may be used as part of a random access memory system for eliminating bit line offset, is disclosed. The balancing circuit contemplated by the invention is capable of supporting rapid memory accesses (such as reads when the memory enters a "read" mode); and simultaneously minimizes the potential for the disturbance of data stored in the memory cells attached to a given bit line pair when the memory is in a "standby" mode following deselect. The invention is particularly useful in connection with the Harper/PNP memory cell arrays.
