ABSTRACT:
A CMOS memory device has a memory cell array, formed on a substrate of a first conductive type, for storing data. The data are input and output via bit line pairs connected to the memory cell array. Sense amplifiers of the first conductive type, which are embedded in wells of a second conductive type, amplify potential differences on the bit line pairs. The sense amplifiers are connected to and driven by a sense amplifier drive signal line. The sense amplifier drive signal line also biases the wells containing the sense amplifiers, thereby preventing latch-up.
