摘要: A semiconductor memory includes a refresh timer and an arbiter for determining the order of precedence between an access operation and a refresh operation, in order to automatically perform refresh operations inside the memory. A detecting circuit operates in a test mode and outputs a detection signal indicating that the refresh operation is yet to be performed, when a new internal refresh request occurs before the refresh operation is performed. For example, the detection signal is output when the interval of access requests is short and no refresh operation can be inserted between the access operations. That is, in the semiconductor memory in which refresh operations are performed automatically, it is possible to evaluate the minimum interval of supplying access requests. As a result, the evaluation time can be reduced with a reduction in the development period of the semiconductor memory.

摘要: A refresh signal is output in response to a refresh request generated at predetermined cycles, and a refresh operation is performed. The refresh operation ends when a conflict occurs between an access request and the refresh request. Consequently, an access operation corresponding to the access request can be started earlier with a reduction in access time. The access time can be reduced further by changing the end time of the refresh operation in accordance with the timing of supply of the access request. Since a test circuit for notifying the state of the refresh operation to exterior is formed, the operation margin of the refresh operation can be evaluated in a short time. As a result, it is possible to reduce the development period of the semiconductor memory.
