Abstract:
A sensing system can read from a memory cell configured to store a data bit and to produce a differential signal indicating a data state of the memory cell. The data state can be selected from three data states. An example of the system can include a pair of bit lines, a pair of sense amplifiers (SAs), and a data output circuit. The bit lines are coupled to the memory cell to receive the differential signal. The SAs are each independently coupled to the bit lines through an isolation circuit. The data output circuit can receive outputs from the SAs and indicate the data state of the memory cell based on the outputs.

Claim (Index 14):
A method for sensing a data state from a memory cell of a memory device, the method comprising:\n producing a differential signal across a pair of bit lines, the differential signal indicating the data state as one of a high state, a low state, and a neutral state; feeding the differential signal independently to each sense amplifier (SA) of a pair of first SA (SA 1 ) and second SA (SA 2 ) through an isolation circuit coupled between the pair of bit lines and the pair of SA 1  and SA 2 ; preconditioning the pair of SA 1  and SA 2  such that SA 1  and SA 2  produce outputs indicating complementary logic levels; sensing the data state using the preconditioned pair of SA 1  and SA 2 ; and determining the data state based on the outputs of SA 1  and SA 2 .
