Abstract:
The SRAM cells of a semiconductor storage device each comprise first and second inverter circuits loop-connected with each other to form a hold circuit; two access transistors; and a hold control transistor connected in series with a drive transistor of the second inverter circuit. While the memory cell is not accessed, the hold control transistor causes the first and second inverter circuits to form the loop connected hold circuit for statically holding data. When the memory cell is accessed, the hold control transistor causes the first and second inverter circuits to be disconnected from the loop connection for dynamically holding data, thereby preventing data corruption that would otherwise possible occur due to a read operation. Moreover, a sense amplifier circuit that uses a single bit line to read data from a memory cell is disposed in a space appearing in the memory cell array, thereby effectively using the area.

The semiconductor storage device includes per-bit sensing circuits 103 each connected to a pair of bit lines (BLT, BLN) and a data output circuit 104 connected to the bit lines BLT from the per-bit sensing circuits, for outputting read data. Each of the per-bit sensing circuits 103 includes a pre-charge circuit for setting the bit line pair to a supply voltage VDD when a bit line pair selection signal YS is inactive, a latch circuit for setting the bit line pair to complementary levels (VDD and GND) according to a read signal when the bit line pair selection signal YS and a sensing circuit activation signal SE are active, and a data write circuit connected to a pair of write data lines (WDT, WDN), for setting one of the bit line pair to a second level (GND) according to write data when the bit line pair selection signal is active. The data output circuit 104 includes a logic circuit and an output transistor. The logic circuit outputs a first value when the bit lines are all at a first level (VDD) and outputs a second value when at least one of the bit lines is at the second level. The output transistor outputs read data to a data output line DL based on an output of the logic circuit.
Abstract:
Transition signal control for creating asynchronous timing is provided using a transition signal control circuit, which includes Muller C elements each with an inverter. The control device is constituted by a machine ring including n-stages of transition signal control circuits, a state ring including k-stages of transition signal control circuits, and a synchronous circuit for synchronizing with the machine ring by receiving a vector which is output from the state ring. When the output vector of the state ring is received, the synchronous circuit outputs a vector to the machine ring. The output vector of the machine ring and the output vector of the state ring create timings for controlling the processor, for example, asynchronously, and these timings are input to the instruction decoder, for example.
