    摘要: A voltage level detector insusceptible to noise is disclosed. The voltage level detector includes a detector section, an output circuit section coupled to the detector section, and a delay circuit section provided between the detector section and the output circuit section. The detector section receives a target signal, and determines if the voltage level of the target signal lies within a predetermined voltage zone. The output circuit section outputs a detection signal when the target signal is found to be in the predetermined zone by the detector section. When the detector section detects that the target signal has come off the predetermined voltage zone, the delay circuit section delays the vanishing of the detection signal output from the output circuit section by a given delay time.

    摘要: In the storage device of the invention, latch control is performed on a series of signals in response to latch control signals. Latch control terminals are provided to which the latch control signals are input respectively and a plurality of signal terminals to which a series of signals are input. Herein, a plurality of latch circuits is provided so as to correspond to the plurality of signal terminals, respectively. The plurality of latch circuits are located within a specified distance from their associated signal terminals respectively and within a specified distance from the latch control terminals. The delays of signal transmission from the signal terminals to their associated latch circuits can be equalized and the delays of signal transmission from the latch control terminals to which the latch control signals for executing latch control are input to the latch circuits can be equalized. This contributes to a reduction in the skew of the latch characteristics of the signals.

    摘要: An address identifying memory block is match-compared with address information stored in a to-be-remedied block memory section in a block redundancy judge section. A redundant block select signal is outputted from the block redundancy judge section by judgment of address match. A memory block column select section selects a memory block column having a redundant memory block irrespective of an address signal as the redundant block select signal is activated if block redundancy is activated to output a memory block column select signal. A column redundancy memory section selects address information of column redundancy relating a redundant memory block arranged in a memory block column in accordance with the memory block column select signal.

    摘要: An access identification circuit (4) identifies a first access operation or a second access operation and outputs an identification signal S. During the first access operation, stored data is read out after detecting a column address CADD, a burst address, and updating a word line to newly select memory cells MC. In the second access operation, the memory cells MC connected to the common word line which has been selected are selected by sequentially switching column selector switches. Operating condition information Dx (DAx and/or DBx) used for setting a load condition in a dummy load circuit (5) and/or setting a pulse width for an equalize signal EQ in an amplification control circuit (6) is stored in each of first and second storage sections (1, 2) that are provided for the first and second access operations, respectively. The operating condition information Dx is selected by a selector circuit (3) in response to the identification signal S and fed to the dummy load circuit (5) and/or the amplification control circuit (6). A suitable operating condition is selected for each of the access operations.
