Accordingly, the sub data line length is reduced, which reduces floating capacitance, reading and writing operations can be conducted at a high speed, and sub data lines can be selectively operated. In addition, power required for charging the sub data lines can be reduced, and entire power consumption by the semiconductor memory device can be reduced as well.

    摘要: In a general read out operation, data read out from a memory cell array is amplified by a preamplifier group. The amplified data is provided to a selector unit. The selector unit responds to a bit organization select signal to select data according to a predetermined bit configuration. The selected data is provided to a data bus. In a test mode, the selector unit responds to a test mode signal to provide a test result to a data bus corresponding to a predetermined bit organization. Therefore, only the required data bus is used according to the bit organization and the test mode.

    摘要: A variable delay line receives and delays a data strobe signal transferred from a data source side in synchronization with a transfer data by a predetermined period, and produces a delayed data strobe signal and the non-delayed data strobe signal to a detector. The detector determines that a preamble period ends and effective data is transferred, when the delayed data strobe signal is at the L level at the time of rising of the non-delayed data strobe signal from the L level to the H level. According to a result of detection, an interface circuit unit takes in the transfer data and initializes a take-in address. The data strobe signal changes to a high-impedance state when a postamble ends. An influence of a glitch noise is avoided upon this change of the data strobe signal, and the data transfer can be executed fast and accurately.
