A sense amplifier circuit comprising a pair of cross-coupled inverters and a data line charging circuit is disclosed. The cross-coupled inverters comprise a first inverter and a second inverter. The first inverter has a first pull-up transistor with a first pull-up terminal. The second inverter has a second pull-up transistor with a second pull-up terminal. The output of the first inverter is coupled to the input of the second inverter at a first sense amp node. The output of the second inverter is coupled to the input of the first inverter at a second sense amp node. The data line charging circuit has a first node connected to a data line and the first pull-up terminal. The data line charging circuit also has a second node connected to a complementary data line and the second pull-up terminal. The first and second pull-up transistors are coupled to different voltage levels when a sense amplifier enable signal is activated.
