摘要:
An electrostatic discharge (ESD) protection device includes an I/O terminal structure and a current discharge structure. The current discharge structure includes a conductive region separated from a bridge region by a gate electrode, a well region formed below the conductive region, another well region separated from the well region by another conductive region, and multiple additional conductive regions implementing dual current discharge paths through another well region.
摘要:
A semiconductor memory device includes a memory cell array having first and second blocks, respectively including first and second memory cells with floating bodies. The first memory cell is connected between a first bit line and a source line, and the second memory cell is connected between a second bit line and the source line. A sense amplifier equalizes the sense bit line and the inverted sense bit line to be an equalization voltage during an equalization operation, pre-charges the sense bit line and the inverted sense bit line to first and second pre-charge voltages during a pre-charge operation, and amplifies a voltage difference between the sense bit line and the inverted sense bit line during read and write operations. The first pre-charge voltage is higher than the equalization voltage and the second pre-charge voltage is higher than the equalization voltage and lower than the first pre-charge voltage.
