Performing logical operations using sensing circuitry

Abstract:

The present disclosure includes apparatuses and methods related to performing logical operations using sensing circuitry. An example apparatus comprises an array of memory cells and sensing circuitry coupled to the array of memory cells. The sensing circuitry includes a primary latch and a secondary latch. The primary latch is coupled to a pair of complementary sense lines and selectively coupled to a pair of adjacent complementary sense lines. The secondary latch is selectively coupled to the primary latch. The primary latch and secondary latch are configured to shift a data value between the pair of adjacent complementary sense lines and the primary latch. The primary latch and secondary latch are configured to shift the data value from the pair of adjacent complementary sense lines without activating a row line.
