摘要:
A clock control circuit for a Rambus DRAM is provided which reduces power consumption by determining in advance whether an applied command is a read or current control command, and enabling a clock signal for externally outputting an internal data only during the read or current control command. Our circuit includes: an input signal detecting unit for generating an enable signal when one of a first comparing signal comparing an address value of the selected Rambus DRAM with a device address value of a COLC packet, and a second comparing signal comparing the address value of the selected Rambus DRAM with a device address value of a COLX packet is enabled, and when the command is a read or current control command; a signal generating unit for generating a clock enable signal for externally outputting an internal data when one of the first and second comparing signals is enabled; an output signal maintaining unit for outputting a control signal for maintaining the clock enable signal to the signal generating unit in the read or current control command; and an output signal control unit for outputting a control signal for controlling generation of the clock enable signal to the signal generating unit, when the command is not the read or current control command.

Disclosed is low power type Rambus DRAM including top/bottom memory bank units respectively comprising a plurality of banks for storing data, top and bottom serial/parallel shifter units, an interface logic circuit unit, a delay lock loop (DLL) unit and an input/output block unit. The top serial/parallel shifter unit is connected between the top memory bank unit and the input/output block unit and the bottom serial/parallel shifter unit is connected between the bottom memory bank unit and the input/output block unit. The interface logic circuit unit generates a signal for selecting the top or the bottom memory bank unit according to read or write command received from the external. The DLL unit generates a clock signal according to the signal outputted from the interface logic circuit unit. The input/output block unit generates a signal for selectively controlling the operation of top and bottom serial/parallel shifter units by buffering the clock signal generated from the DLL unit.

摘要:
A clock synchronization circuit using a phase mixer is disclosed. The clock synchronization circuit generates an internal clock signal having a phase between phases of two clock signals generated in two variable delay lines with a predetermined phase difference by using the phase mixer, thereby precisely synchronizing the clock signal. When a shift register for controlling the variable delay line performs a shift operation, the output clock signal from the variable delay line where the shift operation is performed is not inputted to the phase mixer, but the output clock signal from the other variable delay line is inputted to the phase mixer. As a result, jitter elements generated due to the shift operation do not influence the internal clock signal.
