Abstract:
Embodiments include a method, memory system and a device for the operating a bit-line sensing circuit for bias-controlled bit-line sensing, the embodiments include an input for receiving a single-ended local bit-line signal, a pass device having a first terminal coupled to the input and a second terminal connected to a global bit-line node, The embodiments also include a first inverter having an input connected to the global bit-line node, a header circuit coupled to the first inverter and a first direct current (DC) bias circuit, and a footer circuit coupled to the first inverter and a second DC bias circuit. The embodiments include a second gated inverter having an input coupled to an output of the first inverter.

Claim (Index 19):
The method of  claim 14 , wherein the preventing is performed by disabling at least one output conduction path of the second inverter responsive to the at least one control signal, wherein when the at least one control signal is in the second state, a state of the global bit-line node assumes a state of the output of the second inverter, and wherein when the at least one control signal is in the first state the at least one output conduction path is disabled, preventing the output of the second inverter from controlling the state of the global bit-line node.
