摘要:
A semiconductor memory device having multiple banks each including multiple memory blocks arranged in column and row directions. The memory blocks are divided into multiple memory block groups each sharing a corresponding column select signal. The memory blocks belonging to the respective memory block groups are arranged adjacently in the column direction. Multiple global input/output lines are separately connected to the memory block groups of the respective banks to transfer data of the memory blocks belonging to the respective memory block groups in a time division manner.

摘要:
A test method for a memory having first and second cell arrays, first compressed data obtained by compressing output data of the first cell array and output data of the second cell array is outputted. When the first compressed data represents that a fail exists, output data of one of the first and second cell arrays is locked as normal data, and second compressed data obtained by compressing the normal data and output data of the other of the first and second cell arrays is outputted.
