    摘要: A method for controlling power for a semiconductor storage device and the semiconductor storage device are provided which enable power consumption to be greatly reduced in a standby state. The power control method uses an ultra-low power consumption mode in which power control can be exerted in the standby state. In the ultra-low power consumption mode, a burst self-refresh state, power-OFF state, and power-ON state are provided. In the burst self-refresh state, memory cells are refreshed in a centralized manner. In the power-OFF state, an internal power source circuit can be partially turned OFF. In the power-ON state, internal power sources having been partially turned OFF are turned ON. Therefore, it is possible to greatly reduce power consumption in the standby state.

    摘要: Disclosed is a memory device including an error rate measurement circuit and a control circuit. The error rate measurement circuit, carrying a BIST circuit, reads out and writes data for an area for monitor bits every refresh period to detect an error rate (error count) with the refresh period. The control circuit performs control for elongating and shortening the refresh period so that a desired error rate will be achieved. The BIST circuit issues an internal command and an internal address and drives the DRAM from inside. The BIST circuit writes and reads out desired data, compares the monitor bits to expected values (error decision) and counts the errors.

    摘要: In a semiconductor memory device which requires a refresh operation, a control method stops supplying a word line voltage which is a boosted voltage higher than an external supply voltage, a memory array substrate voltage which is a negative voltage supplied to a semiconductor substrate, and a bit line precharge voltage for use in reproducing data held in memory cells for a predetermined period at the end of each refresh operation. In this event, voltage output terminals of the word line and memory array substrate voltages are respectively driven to a ground potential. For recovering these voltages, the delivery of the word line voltage is stopped until the memory array substrate voltage rises to some extent.

A high-frequency interpolation device 1 includes: a frequency band determination section 2 that determines a bandwidth type of an audio signal as a frequency band determination value preset for each bandwidth according to the frequency characteristics of the audio signal; and an interpolation signal generation section 3 that selects a filter coefficient of a high-pass filter in accordance with the frequency band determination value 2, performs filtering for the audio signal by using the high-pass filter having the selected filter coefficient, and generates a high-frequency interpolation signal for the audio signal.
