A semiconductor memory device includes a sense amplifier, a sense amplifier driving signal driver, and a controller. The sense amplifier is configured to sense and amplify a signal of a bit line and a signal of a complementary bit line in response to a sense amplifier driving signal. The sense amplifier driving signal driver includes a first driving signal driver configured to drive via a transmission line the sense amplifier driving signal in response to a first sense amplifier control signal, and a second driving signal driver configured to drive via the transmission line the sense amplifier driving signal in response to a second sense amplifier control signal. The controller activates the first sense amplifier control signal in response to an active command, and toggles the second sense amplifier control signal while the first sense amplifier control signal is activated.

A memory device comprises a memory cell array comprising a plurality of memory blocks each comprising a plurality of memory cells and a control setting circuit. The control setting circuit divides the memory blocks into at least first and second groups based on whether each of the memory blocks comprises at least one substandard memory cell, and sets individually control parameters of the first and second groups. The substandard memory cells are identified based on test results of the memory cells with respect to at least one of the control parameters. Each memory block in the first group comprises at least one substandard memory cell, and each memory block in the second group comprises no substandard memory cell.

A semiconductor device is provided. The semiconductor device applies data applied through a bump pad on which a bump is mounted through a test pad to a test apparatus such that the reliability of the test can be improved. The amount of test pads is significantly reduced by allowing data output through bump pads to be selectively applied to a test pad. Data and signals applied from test pads are synchronized with each other and applied to bump pads during a test operation such that the reliability of the test can be improved without the need of an additional test chip.

摘要:
A memory device identifies memory blocks that contain substandard memory cells. The memory device then determines row address codes to apply to the memory blocks during refresh operations. The row address codes determine which memory blocks of the memory block are refreshed together. The row address codes are designed to ensure that memory blocks having substandard memory cells, which must be refreshed more frequently than other cells, are refreshed together, while memory blocks without substandard memory cells are refreshed together.
