    摘要: A semiconductor integrated circuit is provided having first and second level generate circuits producing different levels and first and second emitter follower circuits respectively connected thereto. A level generated by one of the first and second level generate circuits is selectively supplied to either one of the first and second emitter follower circuits. This enables the first and second emitter follower circuits to supply the respective circuits formed in a semiconductor substrate with stable reference voltages.

    摘要: A logic block of a memory (LSI) with logic functions includes RAM macrocells (RAMO-RAM7) and a centrally located gate array (GAO-GA5). Clock pulse shaping circuits (CSPO, CSP1) and input/output portion (I/O) surround the logic block. The logic block power supply includes a smoothing capacitor (CC) that is substantially the same size as a cell (GC) of the gate array. Each RAM macrocell has memory mats (MATOO-MAT21), word lines (WO-W127), data lines (DO-D7), and peripheral circuits (MPCOO-MPC21), which includes an address decoder and a sense amp (SAO). An input unit cell (ICO) receives ECL level signals and outputs ECL level signals (FIG. 5 ) and MOS level signals (FIG. 6 ). The input unit cells and analogous output unit cells (OCO) are selectively used singly or in parallel to accommodate signals of different form and driving capability. A wiring line replacement region (LRP) connects memory macrocell wiring lines with logic block wiring lines. A sequence control circuit cell or aligner (ALNO, ALN1) contiguous to the RAM macrocells transmits output signals to the logic block on the wiring lines. A clock signal distribution circuit (CDA) is arranged centrally of the RAM macrocells for distributing ECL level clock signals. The clock signal distribution circuit includes clock switch amplifier circuits (CSAO-CSA9) including bipolar transistors and MOSFETs (FIG. 23 ).

    摘要: A semiconductor memory device is provided which includes a plurality of memory arrays each including main word lines, sub word lines to which a plurality of memory cells are connected, and a decoder which selectively connects the sub word lines to the main word lines. The main word lines are relatively short, since they are isolated electrically between memory arrays, and their resistance can thus be relatively low. The main word lines are not directly connected with a plurality of memory cells, and this results in a smaller capacitance coupled to the main word lines than is customarily the case. Consequently, the semiconductor memory device can have an enhanced operating speed.

    摘要: A logic circuit to be formed in a gate array is selected depending upon the value of the output load capacitance thereof, from among a CMOS circuit, a first Bi-CMOS circuit including an output bipolar transistor whose emitter size is set at a predetermined value, and a second Bi-CMOS circuit including an output bipolar transistor whose emitter size is larger than the emitter size of the output bipolar transistor of the first Bi-CMOS circuit. That is, the logic circuit is brought into a circuit form whose output load capacitance can be charged and discharged fastest. As a result, the logic circuit constructed in the gate array by adopting such a design technique has its operating speed raised. An improved structure is also provided for reducing wiring lengths by arranging bipolar transistors in adjacent basic cells to have mirror symmetry with one another. Further, particular gate width relationships are provided between MOSFETs within basic cells for reducing propagation delay and the required occupation area.
