    摘要: A data transfer circuit is connected between first and second circuits so as to control data transfers therebetween. The data transfer circuit comprises first and second latch circuits for latching data in response to first and second latch control signals, respectively, a first data transfer gate connected between the first circuit and the first latch circuit and responsive to a first gate control signal to make electrical connection or disconnection therebetween, a second transfer gate connected between the first and second data latch circuits and responsive to a second gate control signal to make electrical connection or disconnection therebetween, and a third data transfer gate connected between the second data latch circuit and the second circuit and responsive to a third gate control signal to make electrical connection or disconnection therebetween. After data is transferred from the first circuit to the first data latch circuit, the data can be transferred from the data latch circuit to the second data latch circuit even if the data in the data first circuit disappears. The third data transfer gate can be opened to transfer data from the second data latch circuit to the second circuit.

    摘要: In this invention, in a sensing circuit of a dynamic memory, barrier transistors are provided between the bit lines and the sensing amplifier. A circuit is provided that, on sensing and on data transfer, changes the gate potential of the barrier transistors so that during the sensing operation the barrier transistors are temporarily turned OFF, so that sensing can be carried out with high sensitivity, as the sensing system is not affected by the parasitic capacitance of the bit lines, while, on data transfer to the input/output lines, the gate potential of the barrier transistors is raised to a level greater than a value reached by adding the threshold value of the MOS transistors to the power source voltage, so that the conductance of the barrier transistors is increased, thereby speeding up the presensing of the input/output lines in the sensing circuit.

    摘要: In a semiconductor memory having a column-direction serial access function, two systems of circuits for selecting and fetching data are provided. A circuit operation is alternately performed such that one system is set up while the other system is accessed, thereby reducing a cycle time for a data selecting/fetching operation.

    摘要: In a semiconductor memory system of the serial column access type, a redundant column is used for replacing a defective column. Redundant data lines are connected to the redundant column through a redundant column selection gate. A defective address detection circuit detects the address of a defective column to enable the redundant column selection gate. An address counter is provided for a defective address detection circuit. A redundant column selection circuit selects the redundant column in response to a detection signal from the defective address detection circuit. A data line switching circuit switches, in redundant column select mode, the data lines connecting to a data input/output drive circuit from said regular data lines to the redundant data lines. With this circuit arrangement, in a redundant column select mode, the regular data lines are separated from the data input/output drive circuit. Therefore, even if a shift register constituting a regular column selection circuit operates and the defective column selection gate is enabled to set up a connection of the defective column to the regular data lines, the error data from the defective column is never output. Further, the shift register is operable irrespective of the defective column detection.
