An SDRAM has its operation mode selected to be the SDR mode in response to the first state of the external terminal (OPT), thereby releasing data, which has been read out of a memory mat, in response to a clock signal produced by a clock regenerating circuit having a function of comparing the phases of the input and output of the circuit, or selected to be the DDR mode in response to the second state of the external terminal (OPT), thereby releasing data, which has been read out of the memory mat, in response to a clock signal produced by a clock signal generation circuit in synchronism with an external clock signal.

A Synchronous Dynamic Random Access Memory (SDRAM) has its operation mode selected to be the Single Data Rate (SDR) mode in response to the first state of the external terminal (OPT), thereby releasing data, which has been read out of a memory mat, in response to a clock signal produced by a clock regenerating circuit having a function of comparing the phases of the input and output of the circuit, or selected to be the Double Data Rate (DDR) mode in response to the second state of the external terminal (OPT), thereby releasing data, which has been read out of the memory mat, in response to a clock signal produced by a clock signal generation circuit in synchronism with an external clock. In the SDR mode, data are transferred via data lines in SDRAM unidirectionally and in the DDR mode, data are transferred via the data lines bidirectionally.

Differential amplifier circuits that receive input signals fed through external terminals are served with a first operation voltage and a second operation voltage through a first switching MOSFET and a second switching MOSFET, said first and second switching MOSFETs are turned on by a bias voltage-generating circuit when said input signal is near a central voltage of said first and second operation voltages, control voltages are formed to turn either said first switching MOSFET or said second switching MOSFET on and to turn the other one off to produce a corresponding output signal when the input signal continuously assumes said first voltage or said second voltage for a predetermined period of time, thereby to supply an input signal of a first amplitude corresponding to said first operation voltage and said second operation voltage as well as an input signal of a second amplitude corresponding to a predetermined intermediate voltage between said first operation voltage and said second operation voltage.

摘要:
A field-effect semiconductor element implemented with a fewer number of elements and a reduced area and capable of storing data by itself without need for cooling at a cryogenic temperature, and a memory device employing the same. Gate-channel capacitance is set so small that whether or not a trap captures one electron or hole can definitely and distinctively be detected in terms of changes of a current of the semiconductor FET element. By detecting a change in a threshold voltage of the semiconductor element brought about by trapping of electron or hole in the trap, data storage can be realized at a room temperature.
