ABSTRACT:
A computer system includes a data processor; an address bus; a data bus; row and column decoding circuits; an integrated circuit memory device interconnected with the data processor by way of the address and data buses, the memory device having a pair of bitlines including parts, a sense amplifier, selectable transfer gates between the bitline parts and sense nodes of the sense amplifier, a selection circuit that enables transmission through the transfer gates in response to address signals. The selection circuit provides either a precharge voltage to the transfer gates during a precharge state or high and low level signals to the transfer gates when selecting a transfer gate. During transition to the precharge state, a charge transfer path is enabled for transferring charge from one transfer gate lead to another transfer gate lead. Thereby a substantial quantity of charge is conserved during operation.
