    摘要： A semiconductor memory device and a method of making and using a semiconductor memory device containing a word line design, which is used in ultra-large scale integrated (ULSI) circuits, that produces a device with a lower RC time constant than devices formed using prior art techniques. In one embodiment of the invention low resistivity metal strapping layers are attached to alternating halves of wordlines in a single memory array. The alternating pattern allows the low resistivity of the strapping layers to be utilized without introducing significant negative capacitive resistance effects due to strapping layers being too close to each other.

    摘要： A buffer circuit (10). The buffer circuit (10) includes a first inverter (12) with a first current limiter (18) that limits the standby current used by the first inverter (12). Further, the buffer circuit (10) includes a second inverter (14) that is coupled to an output of the first inverter (12). The input buffer (10) converts a first logic level of an input signal provided to the first inverter (12) to a second logic level at an output of the second inverter (14). The buffer circuit (10) also includes a second current limiting circuit (16) that is coupled between the first and second inverters (12 and 14) to further limit the standby current in the buffer circuit (10).

    摘要： A test circuit tests for defective memory cells in a memory portion of an Embedded DRAM. The Embedded DRAM includes an array of memory cells. The test circuit includes a test mode terminal adapted to receive a test mode signal and a plurality of comparison circuits. Each comparison circuit includes a first input adapted to receive a read data signal and a second input adapted to receive an expect data signal. Each comparison circuit compares the binary values of the read and expect data signals and develops and inactive error signal on an output when the compared signals have the same binary values, and develops an active error signal when the compared signals have different binary values. A storage circuit is coupled to the outputs of the comparison circuits. The storage circuit latches the error signals output by the comparison circuits and sequentially transfers the latched error signals onto a data terminal of the Embedded DRAM. A test control circuit is coupled to the comparison circuits, the test mode terminal, and the storage circuit. The test control circuit operates when the test mode signal is active, to apply data from addressed memory cells respectively on the first inputs of the comparison circuits. The test control circuit also applies respective expect data on the second inputs of the comparison circuits and controls the storage circuit to latch the resulting error signals and thereafter sequentially transfer the latched error signals onto the data terminal. The test circuit may include additional stages of comparison circuits to further compress read test data, as well as additional storage circuits for storing such additional compressed data.

    摘要： A voltage generating circuit for generating internal voltage for a packaged integrated circuit memory device, is controllable to provide incremental adjustments in the voltage for testing of the memory device. The voltage generating circuit permits internally generated voltages of the memory device, such as the substrate voltage Vbb, the DVC2 voltage, and the pumped voltage Vccp, to be controlled externally through the application of test signals via the conventional test function, in performing standard device tests such as the static refresh test, logic 1s and 0s margin testing, and the like for packaged memory devices. Also, programmable circuits including programmable logic devices, such as anti-fuses, are provided that are programmable to maintain the voltage at a magnitude to which it is adjusted.
