A semiconductor memory device is provided to generate a series of pulse signals in response to the activation of an internal chip select signal from an internal chip select buffer when an external chip select signal transitions from an inactive state to an active state. With this configuration, a chip select output time (tco) is more reduced as compared to prior arts. Further, the chip select output time is reduced to be equal to an address access time (tAA) because a designer can control the chip select output time. As a result, the whole access time of the semiconductor memory device can be reduced.

摘要:
An enhanced semiconductor memory device capable of eliminating or minimizing a cell data flip phenomenon caused by capacitive voltage coupling between bit lines in different bit line pairs. Each memory cell is connected to a word line and between a pair of bit line. A first precharging and equalizing circuit us connected to a first bit line pair and a second precharging and equalizing circuit us connected to an adjacent second bit line pair. The first and second precharging and equalizing circuit are activated independently and at different times in order to reduce voltage coupling between neighboring bit lines in different bit line pairs, thereby minimizing or eliminating a cell data flip phenomenon of a neighboring memory cell caused by voltage coupling between bit lines.
