    摘要: An encoding circuit shortens time required for a coincidence signal to be converted into an address code after selected and output sequentially according to a predetermined priority level when the coincidence signal is obtained from an associative memory. The circuit is provided with a contention arbitrating circuit for a lower subgroup and a contention arbitrating circuit for a higher subgroup. In the contention arbitrating circuit for a lower subgroup and the contention arbitrating circuit for higher subgroup, each coincidence signal simultaneously activates inhibiting signals whose priority levels are lower than the priority level of the coincidence signal. A lower half of coincidence signals are arranged in descending order in the contention arbitrating circuit for a lower subgroup and a higher half of coincidence signals are arranged in ascending order in the contention arbitrating circuit for a higher subgroup. The contention arbitrating circuit for a lower subgroup and the contention arbitrating circuit for a higher subgroup are arranged in a triangular array and a complementary triangular array, respectively.

    摘要: A semiconductor memory device comprises a plurality or CAM cells. In a refreshing operation, data of "1" is applied to all of bit lines and inversion bit lines. In the CAM cells storing the data "1", writing of the data "1" onto the bit lines and the inversion bit lines is performed. Then, the data of "0" is applied to all of the bit lines and the inversion bit lines. In the CAM cells storing the data "0", writing of the data "0" onto the bit lines and the inversion bit lines is performed. In a partial writing operation, in the CAM cells to which writing is performed, a first control node is activated, thereby making it possible to write the CAM cells. In the rest of the CAM cells, the first control node is inactivated, thereby making it impossible to write the CAM cells.

    摘要: Each match line is connected to a plurality of CAM cells constituting a CAM array. The respective CAM cells store data applied through a bit line and an inverted-bit line in its data storage portion when selected by a word line. The stored data are applied to a data comparison portion to be compared with retrieval data applied through the bit line and the inverted-bit line, thereby detecting match or mismatch therebetween. A comparison result of the data comparison portion is first stored in a capacitance element in the form of charge. In order to prevent escape of the information stored in the capacitance element, a blocking means blocks a part of a charge and discharge path for the capacitance element. A charge transfer means provided between the capacitance element and the match line transfers a certain amount of charge from either one to the other when information of mismatch is stored in the capacitance element. This causes fluctuation of charge potential on the match line. The fluctuation of potential on the match line depends on the number of mismatched CAM cells out of a plurality of CAM cells connected to the match line. Therefore, detection of potential on the match line permits detecting the number of mismatched CAM cells.
