    摘要: In a semiconductor memory device having redundancy capability, a control signal generating circuit is included respectively for each of a predetermined number of redundant column select signal lines, to generate a predetermined number of block control signals by dividing a plurality of memory cell array blocks into a predetermined number of groups. A predetermined number of defective enable signal generating circuits are included for each of the redundant column select signal lines, to generate a predetermined number of redundant enable signals when defective addresses are input. The redundant column select signal lines are established for defective addresses based on the block control signals. A selection circuit is included respectively for each of the redundant column select signal lines to generate a select signal for selecting a redundant column select signal line corresponding to each of a predetermined number of redundant enable signals, in response to the block control signals. The efficiency of redundancy is thus improved by performing a redundancy operation by dividing a plurality of memory cell arrays into a predetermined number of groups for each of redundant column select signals.

    摘要: A semiconductor memory device includes a memory cell array including a plurality of word lines, a plurality of bit lines including complementary pairs of bit lines, and a plurality of memory cells storing data; a sense amplifier coupled to the memory cell array and configured to sense voltage differences between the complementary pairs of bit lines and amplify the voltage differences; and at least one voltage driver configured to provide either a predetermined voltage or a first power supply voltage to the memory cell array to increase a sensing margin of the semiconductor memory device. The semiconductor memory device increases respective potential differences between complementary pairs of bit lines using a voltage isolated in the memory cell array.
