Abstract

Various implementations described herein are directed to a device for dynamic capacitance balancing. The device may include a sense amplifier configured to receive complimentary data signals from complimentary bitlines and provide first and second sensed data signals based on received complimentary data signals. The second sensed data signal may be a compliment of the first sensed data signal. The device may include a balance coupler configured to receive the second sensed data signal from the sense amplifier and provide a modified second sensed data signal having capacitance similar to the first sensed data signal. The device may include a latch configured to receive the first sensed data signal from the sense amplifier, receive the modified second sensed data signal from the balance coupler, and provide a latched data signal based on the first and modified second sensed data signals.
