Methods, systems, and devices for sense amplifier with digit line multiplexing are described. A method includes precharging an input and an output of an amplifier stage of a sense component to a first voltage based on a read operation associated with a memory cell. The method includes precharging a first side and a second side of a latch stage of the sense component to the first voltage based on precharging the output of the amplifier stage to the first voltage, the latch stage coupled with the amplifier stage. The method may also include coupling a second voltage from a digit line associated with the memory cell to the input of the amplifier stage, the amplifier stage generating a third voltage on the output based on coupling the second voltage to the input, and the latch stage latching a logic value associated with the memory cell based on the third voltage.

Dual-precision analog memory cells and arrays are provided. In some embodiments, a memory cell, comprises a non-volatile memory element having an input terminal and at least one output terminal; and a volatile memory element having a plurality of input terminals and an output terminal, wherein the output terminal of the volatile memory element is coupled to the input terminal of the non-volatile memory element, and wherein the volatile memory element comprises: a first transistor coupled between a first supply and a common node, and a second transistor coupled between a second supply and the common node; wherein the common node is coupled to the output terminal of the volatile memory element; and wherein gates of the first and second transistors are coupled to respective ones of the plurality of input terminals of the volatile memory element.

Various aspects relate to a method of manufacturing a memory cell, the method including: forming a memory cell, wherein the memory cell comprises a spontaneously-polarizable memory element, wherein the spontaneously-polarizable memory element is in an as formed condition; and carrying out a preconditioning operation of the spontaneously-polarizable memory element to bring the spontaneously-polarizable memory element from the as formed condition into an operable condition to allow for a writing of the memory cell after the preconditioning operation is carried out.

Methods, systems, and devices for configurable input for an amplifier are described. In some examples, a circuit may be configured to operate based on a signal having a first voltage profile or a second voltage profile. For example, the first voltage profile may be associated with a range of voltages that are based on a temperature of an associated memory chip, and the second voltage profile may be associated with a voltage (or voltages) that are not associated with the temperature of the memory chip. The circuit may include one or more transistors and switches that are activated based on the voltage profile and a switch receiving a particular control signal. In some instances, the control signal may be received based on a value stored to one or more non-volatile memory elements.

Methods, systems, and devices related to domain-based access in a memory device are described. In one example, a memory device in accordance with the described techniques may include a memory array, a sense amplifier array, and a signal development cache configured to store signals (e.g., cache signals, signal states) associated with logic states (e.g., memory states) that may be stored at the memory array (e.g., according to various read or write operations). The memory array may be organized according to domains, which may refer to various configurations or collections of access lines, and selections thereof, of different portions of the memory array. In various examples, a memory device may determine a plurality of domains for a received access command, or an order for accessing a plurality of domains for a received access command, or combinations thereof, based on an availability of the signal development cache.

Methods, systems, and devices for erasure decoding for a memory device are described. In accordance with the described techniques, a memory device may be configured to identify conditions associated with an erasure, a possible erasure, or an otherwise indeterminate logic state (e.g., of a memory cell, of an information position of a codeword). Such an identification may be used to enhance aspects of error handling operations, including those that may be performed at the memory device or a host device (e.g., error handling operations performed at a memory controller external to the memory device). For example, error handling operations may be performed using speculative codewords, where information positions associated with an indeterminate or unassigned logic state are assigned with a respective assumed logic state, which may extend a capability of error detection or error correction compared to handling errors with unknown positions.

A memory is provided which comprises a capacitor including non-linear polar material. The capacitor may have a first terminal coupled to a node (e.g., a storage node) and a second terminal coupled to a plate-line. The capacitors can be a planar capacitor or non-planar capacitor (also known as pillar capacitor). The memory includes a transistor coupled to the node and a bit-line, wherein the transistor is controllable by a word-line, wherein the plate-line is parallel to the bit-line. The memory includes a refresh circuitry to refresh charge on the capacitor periodically or at a predetermined time. The refresh circuit can utilize one or more of the endurance mechanisms. When the plate-line is parallel to the bit-line, a specific read and write scheme may be used to reduce the disturb voltage for unselected bit-cells. A different scheme is used when the plate-line is parallel to the word-line.

To compensate switching of a dielectric component of a non-linear polar material based capacitor, an explicit dielectric capacitor is added to a memory bit-cell and controlled by a signal opposite to the signal driven on a plate-line.

Methods, systems, and devices for differential amplifier schemes for non-switching state compensation are described. During a read operation, a first node of a memory cell may be coupled with an input of differential amplifier while a second node of the memory cell may be biased with a first voltage (e.g., to apply a first read voltage across the memory cell). The second node of the memory cell may subsequently be biased with a second voltage (e.g., to apply a second read voltage across the memory cell), which may support the differential amplifier operating in a manner that compensates for a non-switching state of the memory cell. By compensating for a non-switching state of a memory cell during read operations, read margins may be increased.

Methods, systems, and devices for apparatus for differential memory cells are described. An apparatus may include a pair of memory cells comprising a first memory cell and a second memory cell, a word line coupled with the pair of memory cells and a plate line coupled with the pair of memory cells. The apparatus may further include a first digit line coupled with the first memory cell and a sense amplifier and a second digit line coupled with the second memory cell and the sense amplifier. The apparatus may include a select line configured to couple the first digit line and the second digit line with the sense amplifier.
