摘要:
When a leakage current of a circuit block under a non-use state is reduced by means of a power switch, frequent ON/OFF operations of the switch within a short time invite an increase of consumed power, on the contrary. Because a pre-heating time is necessary from turn-on of the switch till the circuit block becomes usable, control of the switch during an operation deteriorates a processing time of a semiconductor device. The switch is ON/OFF-controlled with a task duration time of a CPU core for controlling logic circuits and memory cores as a unit. After the switch is turned off, the switch is again turned on before termination of the task in consideration of the pre-heating time.
摘要:
To enhance the speed of first access (read access different in word line from the previous access) to a multi-bank memory, multi-bank memory macro structures are used. Data are held in a sense amplifier for every memory bank. When access is hit to the held data, data latched by the sense amplifier are output to thereby enhance the speed of first access to the memory macro structures. Namely, each memory bank is made to function as a sense amplifier cache. To enhance the hit ratio of such a sense amplifier cache more greatly, an access controller self-prefetches the next address (an address to which a predetermined offset has been added) after access to a memory macro structure so that data in the self-prefetched address are preread by a sense amplifier in another memory bank.
