    摘要: A semiconductor integrated circuit device of the present invention includes a plurality of banks and a plurality of sense amplifier bands. A switch circuit included in each sense amplifier band receives a signal on a transmission line and outputs a signal read from the bank to a global data input/output line arranged in the column direction. A column bank control circuit for outputting a column bank control signal is arranged on the column decoder side. The column bank control signal is supplied to the transmission line through a column bank control signal line arranged in the column direction. The switch circuit operates in accordance with the column bank control signal. By such a configuration, a column-related operation can be matched easily.

    摘要: In a DRAM, an upper address is assigned to each of ways W0 and W1, and a lower address is assigned to each word line WL in each of ways W0 and W1. A self-refresh start trigger generating circuit senses start of self-refresh, and a refresh address change sensing circuit senses change in an upper address. Based on the result of sensing, way selection signals RX0 and RX1 will not be reset and held at an active level while ways W0 and W1 are selected, respectively. Consequently, power consumption can be reduced compared to a conventional example in which signals RX0 and RX1 are reset every time a single word line WL is selected.

    摘要: Main bit lines MBL and ZMBL are disposed at opposite sides of a sense amplifier SA. Main bit lines MBL and ZMBL each are provided for paired sub-bit lines SBL1 and SBL2 (or SBL3 and SBL4). Sub-bit line pair SBL1 and SBL2 is connected to main bit line MBL via a block select switch T1. Sub-bit line pair SBL3 and SBL4 is connected to main bit line ZMBL via a block select switch T2. Since one main bit line is provided for two sub-bit lines, a pitch of the main bit lines is twice as large as a pitch of the sub-bit lines, so that conditions on the pitch of main bit lines are remarkably eased, which facilitates layout of elements.

    摘要: In a DRAM having a complete hidden refresh function, when data refresh is to be carried out in an active mode, a signal for selecting a way is set to an “H” level and then reset to an “L” level at each cycle while the corresponding upper address is designated. When data refresh is to be carried out in a standby mode, the signal for selecting the way is maintained at an “H” level and is not reset to an “L” level while the corresponding upper address is designated. This can reduce the standby current.

    摘要: Activation/inactivation of an internal normal row activation signal for controlling a memory cell selecting operation is controlled in response to leading and trailing edges of an address transition detection signal. When an internal normal row activating signal is activated, generation of an address transition detection signal is masked by mask circuitry. Conflict between an activating operation and an inactivating operation of the normal row activating signal can be prevented and an internal operation can be performed stably. A refresh-control-free dynamic semiconductor memory device having an interface compatible with a static random access memory and capable of stably performing an internal operation is provided.
