    摘要: A semiconductor memory device and a method of expanding a valid output data window are described. The semiconductor memory device includes a memory cell array and an output circuit. The memory cell array generates read data having a plurality of bits. The output circuit outputs the read data sequentially in response to a clock signal in a normal mode. On the other hand, the output circuit selectively outputs the bits of the read data by latching bits to be tested among bits of the read data, and by electrically disconnecting bits not to be tested among bits of the read data in response to a plurality of switch control signals in a test mode. Therefore a valid data window of an output data may be expanded.

    摘要: Semiconductor devices, a system including said semiconductor devices and methods thereof are provided. An example semiconductor device may receive data scheduled for transmission, scramble an order of bits within the received data, the scrambled order arranged in accordance with a given pseudo-random sequence. The received data may be balanced such that a difference between a first number of the bits within the received data equal to a first logic level and a second number of bits within the received data equal to a second logic level is below a threshold. The balanced and scrambled received data may then be transmitted. The example semiconductor device may perform the scrambling and balancing operations in any order. Likewise, on a receiving end, another semiconductor device may decode the original data by unscrambling and unbalancing the transmitted data. The unscrambling and unbalancing operations may be performed in an order based upon the order in which the transmitted data is scrambled and balanced.

The semiconductor device includes a control code generation unit generating a control code in response to a control signal, an addition unit adding an adjustment code to the control code to produce an adjusted control code, and an ODT circuit, wherein an impedance of the ODT circuit is adjusted in response to the adjusted control code. The semiconductor device can adjust the control code more precisely by adding or subtracting the adjustment code to or from the control code. Accordingly, the impedance of an OCD circuit or ODT circuit can be adjusted more precisely.

    摘要: We describe an input buffer having a stabilized operating point and an associated method. An input buffer may include a first differential amplifying unit to generate a first output signal having a first operating point and a second differential amplifying unit to generate a second output signal having a second operating point. An output control circuit varies respective weights of the first and second output signals responsive to an output control signal. The first differential amplifying unit may operate responsive to a reference voltage and an input voltage signal. The second differential amplifying unit may operate responsive to the reference voltage and the input voltage signal. The first operating point may be relatively higher than the second operating point.
