摘要:
A stacked memory chip includes a chip input-output pad unit, a first semiconductor die and a second semiconductor die. The chip input-output pad unit includes a chip command-address pad unit, a lower chip data pad unit and an upper chip data pad unit that are to be connected to an external device. The first semiconductor die electrically is connected to the chip command-address pad unit and the lower chip data pad unit and electrically disconnected from the upper chip data pad unit. The second semiconductor die electrically is connected to the chip command-address pad unit and the upper chip data pad unit and electrically disconnected from the lower chip data pad unit. The input-output load may be reduced by selectively connecting each of the stacked semiconductor dies to one of the lower chip data pad unit and the upper chip data pad unit.
摘要:
An ODT circuit is activated/deactivated in response to a latency control signal or a clock enable signal. The ODT circuit includes an ODT control circuit and an ODT section. The ODT control circuit determines an ODT status based on a read latency control signal (RL) and/or a write latency control signal (WL) to generate an ODT control signal. The ODT section is activated/deactivated in response to the ODT control signal.
摘要:
An internal source voltage generating circuit includes a comparison voltage generator which receives reference and internal source voltages, outputs to a second node a comparison voltage differentially amplified responsive to a voltage of a first node according to a difference between the reference and internal source voltages, and allows a driving current to flow from a third node to a fourth node. An internal voltage driver transfers an external source voltage to an output node responsive to the comparison voltage. A driving current generator increases the driving current flowing from the third node to the fourth node responsive to the voltage of the first node which rises when the internal source voltage abruptly drops. The internal source voltage generating circuit is insensitive to variation of an external source voltage, exhibits improved response time when an internal source voltage abruptly drops, and stably generates an internal source voltage.
