    摘要: Each sub word line is coupled to a gate of a transfer transistor of a memory cell. A first switch of a sub word decoder couples the sub word line to a high level voltage line when a main word line is in an activation level. A second switch couples the sub word line to a low level voltage line when the main word line is in an inactivation level. A third switch couples the sub word line to the low level voltage line when a word reset signal line is in an activation level. A reset control circuit disables the inactivation of the main word line or the activation of the word reset signal line during a test mode. One of the second and third switches is forcibly turned off, and thereby, an operation failure of a sub word decoder can be detected easily.

    摘要: An address switch circuit receives a row address signal supplied to a first address terminal group and a column address signal supplied to a second address terminal group. Further, the address switch circuit receives the row address signal supplied to the second address terminal group and thereafter receives the column address signal supplied to the second address terminal group and supplies the received row address signal and the received column address signal to the row decoder and the column decoder during a second operation mode. The number of semiconductor memories that are tested at once can be increased by executing an operation test of the semiconductor memories in the second operation mode. In addition, it becomes possible to test a semiconductor memory using test assets for other semiconductor memories. Consequently, the test efficiency can be improved, and the test cost can be reduced.

    摘要: Each program circuit outputs an operating specification signal indicating a first or second operating specification according to a program state. Each specification changing circuit is set by a corresponding block selection signal and outputs an operating specification signal indicating a second operating specification. Each timing control circuit changes an output timing of a precharge control signal for a bit line according to the operating specification signal. By the operating specification signal from the specification changing circuit, a failure can be detected in each memory block before programming a program circuit. Thereafter, the failure can be relieved by the program circuit. The output timing of the precharge control signal can be set for each memory block by a block selection signal without wiring a dedicated signal line for setting each specification changing circuit. Accordingly, increase in chip size can be minimized.

    摘要: A data transfer method and system are provided that prevent the length of a time required for writing to a flash memory from appearing on the surface as a system operation when the flash memory is used in place of an SRAM. The method of transferring data includes the steps of writing data from a controller to a volatile memory, placing the volatile memory in a transfer state, transferring the data from the volatile memory in the transfer state to a nonvolatile memory, and releasing the volatile memory from the transfer state in response to confirming completion of the transfer of the data.
