    摘要: A semiconductor memory device that reduces the probability of the penalties of wirings arising. An address input circuit receives an address signal input. A drive circuit drives a memory array in compliance with the address signal. A signal line connects the address input circuit and the drive circuit. A redundant circuit is located near the drive circuit and substitutes other lines including a redundant line for a defective line in the memory array. A defective line information store circuit stores information showing the defective line. A supply circuit supplies information stored in the defective line information store circuit to the redundant circuit via the signal line. This structure enables to transmit an address signal and information regarding a defective line by a common signal line and to reduce the number of wirings and the probability of the penalties of wirings arising.

    摘要: A semiconductor memory device which permits access even during refresh operation and also is low in power consumption. An address input circuit receives an input address, and a readout circuit reads out data from at least part of a subblock group arranged in a column or row direction and specified by the address input via the address input circuit. A refresh circuit refreshes at least part of a subblock group arranged in a row or column direction and intersecting with the subblock group from which data is read out by the readout circuit. A data restoration circuit restores data of a subblock where refresh operation and readout operation take place concurrently, with reference to data from the other subblocks and a parity block.

    摘要: A semiconductor memory device having a plurality of operating modes for controlling an internal circuit comprises a command controlling circuit which accepts signals supplied to predetermined terminals as commands at a plurality of times. The number of operating modes is sequentially narrowed down based on each command and the internal circuit is controlled according to the narrowed operating modes. One such command controlling circuit comprises a plurality of accepting circuits (94a). Each of the accepting circuits (94a) respectively accepts signals, supplied at a plurality of times, each time. In other words, in accordance with the timing of the signal supplement, a different accepting circuit (94a) is respectively operated and the internal circuit is controlled. Accordingly, a command controlling circuit may be readily designed even in the semiconductor memory device having a complicated command combination. Consequently, it is able to facilitate the verification of the design.
    Since the information necessary for determining an operating mode is accepted at a plurality of times, the number of terminals necessary for inputting commands can be reduced. In particular, in case of inputting commands at a dedicated terminal, its input pads, input circuits, or the like are no longer be required so that the chip size can be reduced. The reduction is accomplished by reducing the number of terminals, which gives limits to the package size.
