    摘要: An output buffer includes a pull up transistor of N type field effect to charge a data output terminal by an external power supply potential Vdd in a high level data output operation, and a pull down transistor of N type field effect to discharge the data output terminal to a ground potential Vss in a low level data output operation. The substrate potential of the pull up NMOS transistor is set to a potential of a level higher than the normal case in a high level data output operation. As a result, the output buffer can speedily charge the data terminal in a high level data output operation.

    摘要: In response to an output data width switching mode signal, a predecoder zone+selector zone outputs selection signals SEL0 to SEL7 and WORDA to WORDC to a preamplifier+write driver zone. The preamplifier+write driver zone can switch connection between global I/O lines GIO to GIO and a data bus in response to these selection signals. Read data is output to a pad without through a selector circuit or the like on the data bus, whereby a simple structure can be obtained with no critical adjustment of a delay time resulting from mode switching or address change.

    摘要: There is provided a test mode decision circuit which in the first WCBR cycle responds to an address key by activating a test mode entry signal and with the test mode entry signal activated in the second WCBR cycle responds to an address key by selectively activating test mode signals. In addition to a test mode signal having been activated, the test mode decision circuit further activates another test mode signal. Thus the DRAM hardly enter a test mode erroneously and is also capable of entering more than one test mode simultaneously.

    摘要: In an output buffer of a DRAM, a level shifter outputs a step-up potential responsively when an internal data signal goes low or a test mode signature goes high. An N-channel MOS transistor is rendered conductive in response to the step-up potential from the level shifter, and sets a data input terminal to a power supply potential. The internal data signal and the test mode signature share the level shifter and the N-channel MOS transistor, and hence the layout area can be small and a high-level test mode signature can be output.

    摘要: Independent power supply systems are provided for a peripheral circuit other than a column decoder, an array-relevant circuit, and a column decoder respectively, so that a peripheral power supply voltage, an array power supply voltage, and a column decoder power supply voltage generated independently of each other are supplied to the peripheral circuit, the array-relevant circuit, and the column decoder as an operating power supply voltage, respectively. Preferably, the column decoder power supply voltage during normal operation is set as an intermediate voltage between the peripheral power supply voltage and the array power supply voltage. Thus, an array configuration suitable for driving a transistor with a low voltage in order to achieve lower power consumption can be obtained.

    摘要: A first logic gate circuit receives an internal row strobe signal, an internal column strobe signal and a self refresh mode for providing an operation state detection signal. The operation state detection signal attains an H level when in a stand-by state and a self refresh state. A second CMOS logic gate circuit is closed when the operation state detection signal attains an H level. Therefore, an external input/output control signal is not transmitted to the internal circuit, and a through current does not flow in the CMOS logic gate independent of the level of the external input/output control signal.
