    摘要: In a semiconductor memory device with normal word lines and spare word lines, a partial decoder receives and decodes a predetermined two of the bit signals of the original logic levels of an address signal, and two of the bit signals of the complementary logic levels, which correspond to the predetermined two bit signals, and outputs different signal combinations of the predetermined two bit signals and the two corresponding bit signals. A spare word line selecting circuit receives the different signals and selects one of the different signals in order to select a spare word line which corresponds to a normal word line to which a defective cell is connected. The partial decoder may be used for both the normal word line selection and the selection of spare word lines. With a device constructed in such a manner, bit signals of an address signal are not directly input to the spare word line selecting circuit, but rather signals of different bit signal combinations are input to it. The spare word line selecting circuit merely selects signals of different combinations, and does not need the partial decoding of the address signal. Therefore, the chip area required for wiring may be remarkably reduced when compared with the conventional memory device.

    摘要: A static memory has an address transition detector, an input data transition detector and a pulse signal generator. When a detector detects that an input address or input data has changed, the pulse signal generator produces a pulse signal having a width longer than the shorter of the data-reading or data-writing cycle. This pulse signal controls the period of time during which a penetrating DC current flows between two power sources via some of the components of the memory.

    摘要: In the semiconductor memory device according to the present invention, when there is a defective portion in the memory cells, those memory cells are replaced by redundant memory cells. When defective portions are discovered in the memory cells, the fuse elements corresponding to the memory cells having the defective portions are cut off. Voltages of the select lines connected to the memory cells having the defective portions are held at an L level by the resistors. Due to this, the memory cells having the defective portions are not selected.

    摘要: During a data-clearing operation, while maintaining in the OFF state the transfer gate transistors in each of the static type memory cells associated with at least one column, the source of one of two drive transistors incorporated in the memory cell is set to a high potential level, and the source of the other drive transistor to a low level. As a result, the clearing operation is performed to a minimum of 1 column in the memory cell matrix. Due to the arrangement of the memory device, no address-selecting operation is required for selecting a memory cell during the clearing operation. Moreover, the clearing operation is carried out in a minimum unit of 1 column in the memory cell matrix. Consequently, the processing time for the clearing operation is reduced. Furthermore, the DC current flowing during the clearing operation is reduced, since the transfer gate transistor in the memory cell is maintained in the OFF state during the clearing operation, with the result that the power consumption is lowered.

    摘要: A precharge circuit is provided between bit lines, on the one hand, and a power source potential on the other. The precharge circuit is controlled to be conductive/nonconductive by a clear signal. A control unit is also provided, which controls a decoder when the clear signal is supplied so as to set all the word lines in a selective state. In a clear mode, writing circuits write the same data simultaneously into all of the memory cells.

    摘要: In a selected column, a pull-up transistor pair is not selected but, instead, a transmission gate transistor pair is selected. In the read mode, the transmission gate transistor pair serves as pull-up loads between the bit line pair. However, the transmission gate transistor pair is kept off until the voltage across the bit line pair is decreased from the power supply potential level to the threshold voltage level of the transmission gate transistors. Therefore, no DC current path is formed in the bit line pair when the voltage across the bit line pair is within a range from a voltage equal to the power supply potential level to a potential lower than the power supply potential by an amount equal to the threshold voltage level, and the rate of increase of a potential difference across the bit line pair is determined by a pull-in current of the memory cell. Therefore, a high-speed sense operation can be realized. In the write mode, the transmission gate transistor pair serves a bit line pull-up function. Since no normally-ON bit line load transistor is arranged, no direct current path including the bit line pair is present, and hence, low power consumption can be achieved.
