    摘要: A semiconductor memory device such as a static RAM (Random Access Memory) device comprises a ground connection circuit of n channel field effect transistors connected between two I/O lines and the ground. The precharge circuit for precharging and the ground connection circuit both operate in response to the signal which is in synchronization with an externally applied external chip select signal. Therefore, the access delay derived from the fluctuation of the supply voltage generated before the change of the external chip select signal can be prevented.

    摘要: A word line driving signal generating circuit and a sense amplifier activating signal generating circuit are provided for every partitioned memory cell array. When the levels of an external RAS signal and an external CAS signal have a predetermined relation and an external RNC signal remains at a predetermined potential or more, a refresh operation is started. A refresh address is generated from a refresh address counter in a sense restore control circuit. All of the memory cell arrays are simultaneously refreshed in response to the address. On this occasion, an operation for selecting a column by a column decoder provided in each of the memory cell arrays is inhibited. In the case in which an input of the external RNC signal is not prepared, when the levels of the external RAS signal and the external CAS signal have a predetermined relation and this state is held in a predetermined time period or more, the same refresh operation as described above is started.

    摘要: Disclosed is a semiconductor memory device which is operable in a selected one of page mode and nibble mode, depending upon the length of time in which an external column address strobe signal stays at a specific level. The semiconductor memory device comprises a circuit for discriminating the length of time where the external column address strobe signal is at a specific level with a predetermined period of time. Data is outputted in page mode in response to one of results of such discrimination and in nibble mode in response to the other result of the discrimination. The discriminating circuit may comprise a second internal column address strobe signal generator and a delay circuit. The second internal column address strobe signal generator includes a NAND circuit at its first stage, and the delay circuit is designed to have different delay times at the building-up and downward edges of an input signal applied thereto. The output of the discriminator is used to operate and reset an output circuit whereby one of the output modes is selected.

    摘要: A semiconductor memory device comprises a plurality of row decoder circuits connected with word lines for selecting memory cells. The row decoder circuits include normal row decoder circuits and spare row decoder circuits which can be selected in place of a normal row decoder circuit in case where a fault occurs in a memory cell selected by a word line connected to the normal row decoder circuit. An RAS signal (precharge signal) is applied to an output line (12) of a normal row decoder circuit through a precharge bus (31). A link element (11p) is inserted in the precharge bus (31). The link element (11p) is an element which can be melted by a laser beam, whereby the normal row decoder circuit associated is maintained in a non-selective state. A clamp circuit (14) is also connected to the output line (12). The clamp circuit (14) is a circuit for maintaining the output line (12) at a prescribed low level when the link element (11p) is melted and the associated decoder circuit is brought into a non-selective state.

    摘要: P-type sense amplifier and N-type sense amplifier are connected to each of bit lines in a pair of bit lines respectively. N-channel MOS transistor is connected to each of the bit lines between the P-type sense amplifier and the N-type sense amplifier, and normally turned on. Each of a plurality of memory cells is connected to any of the bit lines at the side of the N-type sense amplifier from the transistor. The power source potential generated by the P-type sense amplifier is dropped by the threshold voltage of the transistor and supplied to one of the bit liens to which the memory cells are connected. The ground potential generated by the N-type sense amplifier is supplied without changing the potential to other of the bit lines. If the threshold value of the transistors to constitute the memory cells is made equal to the threshold voltage of the transistors on the bit lines, intermediate potential between the potential as "H" level held in the memory cells and the potential as "L" level becomes equal to the precharge potential of the bit lines, thereby unbalance of the read-out voltages can be eliminated.

    摘要: Disclosed is a semiconductor memory device which is one of three types of semiconductor memory devices, one operable only in page mode, one operable only in nibble and one operable selectively in page mode or nibble mode, being obtained from a partially unconnected semiconductor memory device through alternations in a portions in wiring. The semiconductor memory device includes first and second internal column address strobe signal generator. The second internal column address strobe signal generator has at the first stage thereof a NAND circuit one of inputs to which determines the type of the semiconductor memory device depending on which of three kinds of signals is selected as the input. Selection of such an input is effected by an aluminum wiring process using a mask. Such selection of the input causes variation in the input response characteristics of the output of the second internal column address strobe signal generator, thus providing a desired response appropriate for the selected mode or modes.
