    摘要: In a read only semiconductor memory, signal lines such as data lines are subjected to an undesired parasitic capacitance which restricts the signal changing rate along the lines. The parasitic capacitance which is driven by a memory cell will become increasingly higher as the memory capacity is increased. According to the present invention, a differential sense amplifier is used to amplify the data signals which are read out of the memory cell. At the same time, a dummy cell is used to generate a reference potential which is to be referred to by the differential sense amplifier. In particular, a dummy cell arrangement is provided wherein each dummy cell includes at least two series-connected semiconductor elements to provide a predetermined dummy cell conductance to establish a reference value. Another aspect of the invention lies in the use of column switches between a common data line and data lines of the memory arrays for coupling only one data line at a time through the column switch to the sense amplifier. In addition, a built-in error-correcting-code circuit is provided which operates in conjunction with a selecting circuit so that memory cells delivering a predetermined set of data are spaced apart from one another by at least predetermined distances to reduce the likelihood of errors from immediately adjacent memory cells.

    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.

    摘要: An intended image data structure is assumed to have a color information storing region and a pixel information storing region as its components. First, consider that the color information storing region within the image data structure is divided into a plurality of subregions, and a corresponding bit value is defined for each of the subregions. Next, an index number stored for each of pixels within the pixel information storing region is changed to an index number belonging to a subregion corresponding to a bit value of information to be embedded. In this way, one bit or more of information can be embedded for each pixel. Thus, a large amount of information can be embedded into a small-size image composed of simple shapes and having a small number of colors without degrading the image quality, and the information can be extracted from the image in which it has been embedded.
