摘要:
In a circuit configuration and a method for testing storage cells, all of the bit lines lead to one pair of fault lines which is first precharged with mutually-complementary logic levels. All of the storage cells of a word line are always read-out in parallel relative to one another. In the event of "no fault" the pair of fault lines retains its logic states, whereas in the case of a fault one of the fault lines changes its logic state through switching transistors. This is recognized and analyzed by a comparator circuit in the form of an XOR-circuit or an XNOR-circuit.

A multi-stage integrated decoder device has a special function which facilitates the simultaneous activation of a plurality and as many as all of its outputs. When it is used as a bit line decoder it is thus possible to activate a plurality and as many as all of the bit lines (including any redundant bit lines) of a block of storage cells of a semiconductor memory.

摘要:
A circuit gives each of the input signals at its inputs to a common circuit previously charged to a supply voltage through transfer transistors. When the logical condition is satisfied the common circuit remains charged; otherwise the charge changes. This is detected by a discriminator circuit and the result is indicated at the circuit output. The circuit may be of AND-, OR-, NAND- and NOR design.

An integrated semiconductor memory includes a memory cell field having memory cells disposed in matrix form, word lines and internal bit lines forming pairs of internal bit lines for triggering the memory cells. Internal weighting circuits are each assigned to a respective one of the internal bit line pairs. An external pair of bit lines is commonly assigned to the internal bit lines. Pairs of separation transistors are each assigned to a respective one of the internal bit line pairs for electrical separation of the respective internal bit line pair from the external pair of bit lines. A bit line decoder triggers the pairs of separation transistors. An external weighting circuit is provided. A discriminator device and a precharging device are connected to the external bit line pair. The internal bit lines of each pair of internal bit lines are triggered separately from one another. The internal bit lines of each pair of internal bit lines are connected to the external bit line pair separately from one another.

A multi-stage, integrated decoder device includes a special function which facilitates the simultaneous activation of a plurality or as many as all of its outputs while gating out a pre-selectible output. When used as bit line decoder, it is thus possible to activate a plurality or up all of the bit lines (including any redundancy bit lines) of a block of storage cells of a semiconductor memory, excluding a bit line assumed to contain at least one defective storage cell.

An integrated semiconductor memory of the DRAM type includes word lines and bit line pairs. Memory cells in a matrix are connected to the word lines and the bit lines. One evaluator circuit per bit line pair is connected to the bit lines. Each of the bit line pairs is divided into one bit line and one reference bit line during operation. A control line is provided. At least one coupling capacitor is provided for each of the bit lines and each of the reference bit lines having a first lead connected to the bit line pair and a second lead connected to the control line. A method for testing an integrated semiconductor memory of the DRAM type includes reading data stored in memory cells out of the memory cells, precharging bit line pairs to a precharge level before reading out, and feeding an additional potential to each bit line pair after precharging.

An integrated semiconductor circuit includes word lines and bit lines. A memory region has at least one memory cell field with memory cells addressable through the word lines and the bit lines, and a number of evaluator circuits corresponding to the number of the bit lines. Each of the evaluator circuits is connected with one of the bit lines and divides the one bit line into two at least approximately identical bit line halves. Logic units of a block perform digital processing of data read-out of the memory region through the bit lines and evaluated. Each of the logic units is connected to the two bit line halves of one of the bit lines. Various operating modes of the block of logic units are selected with mode select signals.
