A memory device includes a memory array and a sense amplifier. The sense amplifier operates with a first supply voltage and be enabled, in response to an enable signal, to receive first and second current signals from the memory array through first and second nodes, and includes a pull-up circuit and a latch circuit. The pull-up circuit is coupled between a first supply voltage terminal and the first to second nodes, and couples, in response to a first control signal having a low logic state, the first supply voltage terminal to the first and second nodes. The latch circuit generates, in response to the first and second current signals received from the first and second nodes, first and second output signals for determining a data stored in a memory cell in the memory array when the first supply voltage terminal is coupled to the first and second nodes.
