ABSTRACT:
A sense amplifying system is provided having first and second bit lines and first and second differential amplifiers arranged in tandem with a first isolation device connecting one side of the first amplifier to the first bit line and a second isolation device connecting the other side of the first amplifier to the second bit line and with a third isolation device connecting one side of the second amplifier to the first bit line and a fourth isolation device connecting the other side of the second amplifier to the second bit line. A precharging circuit charges the first and second lines to the same potential. The first amplifier is used to sense signals on the first line while using a reference voltage derived from the second line and the second amplifier is used to sense signals on the second line while using a reference voltage derived from the first word line.
