    摘要: A device and method for accessing a row of data in a semiconductor memory device in a single operation is disclosed. The device includes a row of latches having a width which matches the width of the memory array in the semiconductor memory device. The device includes precharge and equilibration circuitry associated with the row of latches and the row of sense amplifiers in device, and timing circuitry for controlling the operation of each in performing full page read and write operations. Writing a full row of data from the row of latches into a selected row of memory cells includes the steps of disconnecting the row of sense amplifiers from the reference voltage sources; equalizing voltage levels appearing on the bit lines of the semiconductor memory and the sense amplifiers; connecting a row of memory cells to the bit lines; driving at least one bit line of each pair of bit lines to a voltage level representing the data value stored in the corresponding latch; coupling the sense amplifiers to the reference voltage sources for powering the sense amplifiers; and disconnecting the row of memory cells from the bit lines.

    摘要: A synchronous semiconductor memory device capable of improving substantial transfer rate is provided. In response to a write command immediately following an act command, a control signal generating circuit applies an inactive enable signal to a read preamplifier & write buffer. In response to a write command and a precharge command, the control signal generating circuit generates an active enable signal, and the read preamplifier & write buffer writes the data stored in an FIFO to a memory cell. As late write is not performed upon reception of a write command immediately following an act command, erroneous writing of data to a not intended address can be prevented.

    摘要: The present invention internally latches a write data signal applied in synchronous with an external data strobe signal in response to an internal data strobe signal which is generated in response to this external data strobe signal, and furthermore, supplies the write data signal to a memory cell array from a write circuit such as a write amplifier in response to a write signal generated from this external data strobe signal. Meanwhile, an address signal is introduced internally in accordance with an external clock. Therefore, since the driving of the data bus connected to a memory cell array from a write amplifier, which constitutes a write operation internal to memory, commences in accordance with an external data strobe signal, a write operation can be ended in the shortest possible time from write data signal input. The above-described invention is especially effective when memory comprises a 2-bit pre-fetch. That is, a 2-bit write data signal is supplied time-sequentially in synchronous with an external data strobe signal. Since an internal write operation can commence after receiving for the input of that second write data signal, it enables the shortest write operation.
