    摘要: Source potential connection transistors, each supplying a source control potential from a source potential wiring to a source node, are disposed so as to be dispersed in a memory cell array. In addition, a source potential control circuit is disposed inside a row decoder block. With this configuration, the number of the cells connected to each word line can be increased, and the area of the memory core can be reduced. Furthermore, the pattern shape of the diffusion layer constituting the source potential connection transistor is made the same as that of the diffusion layer of a memory cell transistor, whereby mask creation can be facilitated.

    摘要: A semiconductor memory device 1 comprises precharge circuits 31, 32 corresponding to global data line pairs DL0/NDL0, DL1/NDL1, but not a precharge circuit corresponding to a local data line pair LDL/NLDL. In a command waiting state, data line selection switches 21, 22 are controlled to be in a connected state, so that the local data line pair and the global data line pairs are precharged all together while being connected to each other. In a command executing state, one of the data line selection switches 21, 22, the one being not required for command execution, is in an open state. Similarly, a semiconductor memory device comprising only a precharge circuit corresponding to a local data line pair can be provided.

    摘要: Over an active region with two bent portions on a semiconductor substrate, first and second word lines extend to cross these bent portions and to be vertically spaced apart from each other. Around at the center of the active region, a capacitor for storing data thereon and a capacitor contact are formed. A first bit line contact, which is connected to the active region, is formed on the opposite side to the capacitor contact across the first word line over the active region. A second bit line contact, which is also connected to the active region, is formed on the opposite side to the capacitor contact across the second word line over the active region. These first and second bit line contacts are provided substantially symmetrically about the center of the memory cell. In a pair of memory cells adjacent to each other along bit lines, one vertical end of the active region in one of the memory cells is continuous with an associated vertical end of the active region in the other memory cell. And each of the first and second bit line contacts is shared between an adjacent pair of memory cells.
