    摘要: A semiconductor device for generating first and second internal clocks complementary with each other from an external clock and usable for both a system of a type using a complementary clock and a system of a type generating a 180° phase clock internally, is disclosed. A first clock input circuit (buffer) is supplied with a first external clock and outputs a first internal clock. A second clock input circuit (buffer) is supplied with a second external clock complementary with the first external clock and outputs a second clock. A ½ phase clock generating circuit generates a ½ phase shift signal 180° out of phase with the first internal clock. A second external clock state detection circuit judges whether the second external clock is input to the second clock input buffer. A switch is operated to produce the second clock as the second internal clock when the second external clock is input and to produce the ½ phase shift signal as the second internal clock when the second external clock is not input, in accordance with the judgement at the second external clock state detection circuit.

    摘要: A semiconductor device for generating first and second internal clocks complementary with each other from an external clock and usable for both a system of a type using a complementary clock and a system of a type generating a 180.degree. phase clock internally, is disclosed. A first clock input circuit (buffer) is supplied with a first external clock and outputs a first internal clock. A second clock input circuit (buffer) is supplied with a second external clock complementary with the first external clock and outputs a second clock. A 1/2 phase clock generating circuit generates a 1/2 phase shift signal 180.degree. out of phase with the first internal clock. A second external clock state detection circuit judges whether the second external clock is input to the second clock input buffer. A switch is operated to produce the second clock as the second internal clock when the second external clock is input and to produce the 1/2 phase shift signal as the second internal clock when the second external clock is not input, in accordance with the judgement at the second external clock state detection circuit.

    摘要: A semiconductor memory includes memory cell blocks, a burst-length information generating circuit which generates burst-length information based on a burst length, and a block enable circuit which receives the burst-length information. The block enable circuit selectively enables one of the memory cell blocks when the burst length is equal to or shorter than a predetermined burst length and selectively enables a plurality of memory cell blocks based on the burst length when the burst length is longer than the predetermined burst length. Data are read from the above-mentioned one or plurality of memory cell blocks.

    摘要: The present invention is that in a dynamic memory circuit, first and second internal operation cycles are assigned to one external operation cycle according to external commands, a memory core performs a read operation which corresponds to a read command at the first internal operation, and performs a refresh operation which responds to a refresh command at the second internal operation cycle. Also the memory core performs a refresh operation which responds to a refresh command at the first internal operation cycle, and performs a write operation which corresponds to a write command at the second internal operation cycle. It is preferable that when the read or write command is not input, the refresh operation is performed at the earlier internal operation cycle. And a refresh command generation circuit which generates the refresh command at a refresh time is created in the memory circuit.
