Abstract

A memory cell includes a metal oxide semiconductor (MOS) capacitor including a gate coupled to a storage node and an electrode coupled to a synchronization control line. The MOS capacitor adds a coupling voltage to the gate based on a change in voltage on the synchronization control line. The coupling voltage may maintain the storage node within a predetermined range.
