US Patent 7983080 Non-body contacted sense amplifier with negligible history effect

In a method of mitigating hysteresis effect in a sense amplifier circuit, a data value is sensed from a data source with the sense amplifier during a first period. The data value is stored in a latch. The data valued stored in the latch is inverted, thereby generating an inverted data value. The data source is isolated from the sense amplifier and the inverted data value is read with the sense amplifier during a second period immediately following the first period.
