    摘要: A semiconductor memory of the present invention comprises: a static-type memory cell constituted of a pair of access transistors formed with NMOS transistors, a pair of drive transistors formed with NMOS transistors, and a pair of load transistors formed with PMOS transistors. Further, it comprises a substrate bias control unit which applies bias for increasing access speed to a substrate of any of the transistors when making access to the memory cell through adjusting electric current flown to a memory storage node in a common junction point of the three types of transistors. A substrate potential which is appropriate for reading-out, writing, memory-storing operation and low leak is applied.

    摘要: A dummy bit line is provided between a pair of bit lines. The pair of bit lines is set at a power supply voltage and the dummy bit line is set at a ground voltage, and then the pair of bit lines and the dummy bit line are equalized. When a word line is activated in subsequent read operation, the pair of bit lines is at an intermediate potential lower than the power supply voltage, so that an apparent current drive capability of an access transistor decreases, and the static noise margin of a memory cell increases.

    摘要: A semiconductor memory device comprises a plurality of memory cell groups. Each memory cell group includes at least two memory cells. Each memory cell group includes a read section and a write section. The data of a memory cell is read from one bit line to a read global bit line through the read section. The write section is shared by at least two memory cells in the same memory cell group. Thus, writing of data in a memory cell is desirably achieved although the memory cell has a common 6-transistor structure.

    摘要: An SRAM includes: a memory cell array; and a control circuit. Each memory cell includes: inverters; and access transistors interposed in lines connecting internal nodes in the respective inverters and a pair of bit lines BIT and NBIT. The control circuit includes a bias circuit for transmitting signals to the bit lines BIT and NBIT. A memory cell power supply terminal and a control circuit power supply terminal are isolated from each other. When power is turned on, the bias circuit sets one of the bit lines at a power supply potential (high potential) and the other bit line at a ground potential, so that a minute potential difference is generated between the internal nodes and thereby data is initialized. Transistors in the memory cell do not need to be asymmetric.
