An integrated circuit has configurable logic blocks that are reconfigurable, hard-wired logic blocks that carry out fixed operations, and a memory. The memory stores configuration data for configuring the configurable logic blocks, block-connection data for determining connections between the configurable and hard-wired logic blocks, and partial-circuit-connection data for determining connections between partial circuits each of which consists of logic blocks selected among the configurable and hard-wired logic blocks. These pieces of data are shared by the logic blocks to reduce the number of memories in the integrated circuit and improve the packaging density of the integrated circuit.

A bit line controller is provided for connecting a data input/output line and one bit line BL to each other. The bit line controller has a data latch for latching multilevel write data supplied from the data input/output line to the memory cell and a sense amplifier for sensing and latching data output to one bit line BL from the memory cell transistor. When the number of multilevel data to be output to one bit line BL is 2m (m is a natural number not smaller than 2)=n-level, the number of each of the data latch and sense amplifier is “m”. Specifically, when the number is determined such that 22=4, the number of each of the data latch and the sense amplifier is two. As a result, there is provided a nonvolatile semiconductor memory device capable of decreasing the size of a column-system circuit and realizing a highly integrated structure.

A semiconductor memory device which receives a row address strobe (RAS) signal and a column address strobe (CAS) signal from an external device. The device includes rewritable memory cells formed on a semiconductor substrate, a plurality of bit lines, a plurality of word lines, and a transfer gate coupled between the bit lines and input/output (I/O) lines and controlled by a column select line or signal. In one embodiment, a first transfer gate is connected between the bit lines and a second transfer gate, the second transfer gate connected between the first transfer gate and an input/output (I/O) line and controlled by a column select line (CSL). A third transfer gate may also by provided. The first transfer gate is driven in response to a clock signal which is enabled at substantially the same time as a word line of the plurality of word lines is selected during both read and write cycles. Thus, during a write cycle in which the CAS signal is enabled prior to the RAS signal, a selected CSL can be increased from a first voltage (VSS) to one of a second voltage (Vdd) and {fraction (3/2)} Vdd as soon as a column address is input.
