Abstract

A storage unit includes a latch, and the latch provides a first storage bit. The storage unit further includes a first MOS transistor. A gate of the first MOS transistor is connected to the first storage bit, a source of the first MOS transistor is connected to a first read line, and a drain of the first MOS transistor is connected to a second read line. In a first state, the first read line is a read word line, and the second read line is a read bit line; or in a second state, the second read line is a read word line, and the first read line is a read bit line.
