摘要:
A semiconductor integrated circuit device which constitutes a dynamic RAM has an automatic refresh circuit that contains a refresh timer circuit. The refresh timer circuit has a program element such as a fuse element. The program element is programmed depending upon the data holding characteristics of the dynamic memory cells. Therefore, the refresh period is changed depending upon the characteristics of the dynamic memory cells. According to this construction, the refresh period changes and, as a result, any undesired refresh operation is prevented from being executed, making it possible to reduce the amount of electric power consumed by the circuit device.

YA semiconductor memory is provided with memory cells for storing a plurality of sets of data, each of the sets having check bits. A selecting circuit selects some of the memory cells to form a set in response to a first address signal. The circuit includes an error correcting code circuit, a tristate circuit and a control circuit which forms a control signal to control the tristate circuit. Output terminals of the tristate circuit are coupled with external output terminals of the semiconductor memory. Also, the tristate circuit is controlled by the control signal to bring the external circuit terminals into high impedance at least during the time when the error correcting code circuit is delivering indefinite data.
