High-speed cascode sensing scheme for 1.0 V contact-programming mask ROM

TL;DR: In this paper, a low-voltage contact-programming mask ROM was designed which utilizes a cascode sense amplifier (S/A) and a dummy S/A controlled the bit-line pre-charging period to operate the read S /A quickly in spite of high programmed-data-dependence of the bit line capacitance.
