MEMORY SYSTEM - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 20240304229 titled 'MEMORY SYSTEM

The abstract of the patent application describes a memory system with specific components and configurations to perform write operations efficiently.

  • The memory system includes a first wiring, a second wiring, and a memory cell between them.
  • A first power supply line provides a first voltage for write operations.
  • A first transistor supplies the necessary current for write operations to the memory cell.
  • A second transistor, connected in parallel with the first transistor, is controlled based on the current flow to the second power supply line.
  • A second power supply line supplies a second voltage to the unselected memory cell during write operations.
  • A first current copy circuit copies the current flowing to the second power supply line and controls the second transistor accordingly.
