摘要:
A synchronous dynamic random access memory has spare columns which can be tested before shipping. In the memory, a mode set register outputs a multibank write signal in the test mode. A CBS latch circuit generates not only a signal for selecting the spare column decoders in banks and in the test mode but also signals for selecting the column decoders. Write driving circuits write the data onto the column lines selected by the column decoders and onto the spare column lines selected by the spare column decoders.

A semiconductor memory device resets a latch data output before new data is transferred in a successive data output mode, in order to improve a high-speed access operation of the semiconductor memory. Data stored in a memory cell of a memory cell array or a register portion arranged in a column direction are successively accessed with a signal /CAS as a trigger. The accessed data is output through an output buffer in a clock cycle between a trigger of the signal /CAS and a next trigger thereof. In the output buffer of the semiconductor memory, immediately before an output cycle of new data transmitted from the memory cell through a data line, the previous data is reset and a data output portion is set to a high-impedance state by the signal /CAS. Thereafter, the new data is supplied to the output buffer through the data line.
