    摘要: There is achieved a high-integrated and high-speed nonvolatile memory which can stabilize an operation of a phase-change memory for a short operation cycle time. A latch is provided in a write driver. A change to a high-resistance state of a phase-change element is performed per column cycle by a write-enable signal, and a change to a low-resistance state thereof is performed after a pre-charge command is inputted and concurrently with deactivation of a pre-charge signal. Thereby, a write time to a memory cell in which phase-change resistance is changed to a low-resistance state, and a period from a write operation for changing the phase-change resistance to a high-resistance state to a read operation to the above memory cell can be lengthened without extending the column cycle time, so that the stable write operation is achieved.

    摘要: In a memory array structured of memory cells using a storage circuit STC and a comparator CP, either one electrode of a source electrode or a drain electrode of a transistor, whose gate electrode is connected to a search line, of a plurality of transistors structuring the comparator CP is connected to a match line HMLr precharged to a high voltage. Further, a match detector MDr is arranged on a match line LMLr precharged to a low voltage to discriminate a comparison signal voltage generated at the match line according to the comparison result of data. According to such memory array structure and operation, comparison operation can be performed at low power and at high speed while influence of search-line noise is avoided in a match line pair. Therefore, a low power content addressable memory which allows search operation at high speed can be realized.

    摘要: A semiconductor memory device is provided which can achieve the high integration, ultra-high speed operation, and significant reduction of power consumption during the information holding time, by reducing the increase in the area of a memory cell and obtaining a period of the ultra-high speed readout time and ensuring a long refresh period at the time of the self refresh. A DRAM employing a one-intersection cell·two cells/bit method has a twin cell structure employing a one-intersection 6F2 cell, the structure in which: memory cells are arranged at positions corresponding to all of the intersections between a bit-line pair and a word line; and when a half pitch of the word line is defined as F, a pitch of each bit line of the bit-line pair is larger than 2F and smaller than 4F. Further, an active region in the silicon substrate, on which a source, channel and drain of the transistor of each memory cell are formed, is obliquely formed relative to the direction of the bit-line pair.
