Abstract:
An apparatus is disclosed, including a plurality of memory cells, in which a given memory cell is coupled to a true bit line, a complement bit line, and a power supply signal. The apparatus also includes a pre-charge circuit that is configured to charge, for a first duration, the true bit line and the complement bit line to a voltage level that is less than a voltage level of the power supply signal. The pre-charge circuit is also configured to maintain, for a second duration that is longer than the first duration, the voltage level on the true bit line and the complement bit line.

Claim (Index 8):
A method, comprising:\n charging, by a first device included in a pre-charge circuit, for a first duration, a true bit line coupled to one or more memory cells of a memory array to a particular voltage level that is less than a voltage level of a power supply signal coupled to the one or more memory cells, wherein the first duration is less than a duration of a pre-charge phase of a memory access cycle; and maintaining the particular voltage level on the true bit line by a second device included in the pre-charge circuit for the duration of the pre-charge phase of the memory access cycle.
