    摘要: A stacked semiconductor device includes: an internal circuit; a through electrode provided to penetrate through a semiconductor substrate; a test wiring to which a predetermined potential different from a substrate potential is supplied at a time of a test; a first switch arranged between the through electrode and the internal circuit; a second switch arranged between the through electrode and the test wiring; and a control circuit that exclusively turns on the first and the second switches. Thereby, it becomes possible to perform an insulation test in a state that the through electrode and the internal circuit are cut off. Thus, even when a slight short-circuit that does not lead to a current defect occurs, the short circuit can be detected.

    摘要: Disclosed are a memory command address system and a memory module that can be operated not only for 266 MHzCLK but also for 200 MHzCLK, in which clock timings in the input sections of a PLL, a register, and a DRAM are matched to one another, a DLL (delay locked loop) is provided in the register, the output timing of CA signal from the register is controlled so that the setup time margin and the hold time margin of the CA signal with respect to the clock signal with the additional latency in the DRAM=1.5 or 2.0 are equated to each other, such that clock operation of 266 MHz, for example, is made possible. If both 266 MHz and 200 MHz are used, by taking account of the timing budget, control is made for retarding the timing of the CA signal input to the flip-flop which receives an internal clock signal (intCLK) supplied to the flip-flop for determining the CA signal output timing from the register. Alternatively, control is made for switching between the replica (replical) provided in the register and an output unit associated with the replica, depending on the frequency being used, so as to cope with both frequencies simply by providing one sort of the module and one sort of the register.

    摘要: To include a first semiconductor chip including driver circuits, a second semiconductor chip including receiver circuits, and through silicon vias provided in the second semiconductor chip. The first semiconductor chip includes an output switching circuit that exclusively connects an output terminal of an i-th driver circuit (where i is an integer among 1 to n) to one through silicon via among an i-th through silicon via to an (i+m)-th through silicon via. The second semiconductor chip includes an input switching circuit that exclusively connects an input terminal of an i-th receiver circuit (where i is an integer among 1 to n) to one through silicon via among the i-th through silicon via to the (i+m)-th through silicon via. With this configuration, because a difference in wiring lengths does not occur between signal paths before and after replacement of through silicon vias, the signal quality can be enhanced.
