Abstract

A DRAM cell is provided which includes a read bit line capable of being precharged to a first voltage level, a write bit line capable of carrying data, a read word line capable of being asserted at a second voltage level, and a write word line capable of being asserted at about the first voltage level. A first switching device having an enable input is coupled between the read bit line and the word read line. A second switching device having an enable input coupled to the write word line is coupled between the write bit line and the enable input of the first switching device.
