Semiconductor storing apparatus including multiple chips and continous readout method
Abstract:
A semiconductor storing apparatus capable of performing continuous readout between multiple chips in high speed is provided. A NAND-type flash memory includes the stacked multiple chips. Each of the chips includes: a readout part performing the continuous readout; an output buffer part outputting data readout from the readout part to input/output bus synchronously with a clock signal; and a final page detecting part detecting if readout pages are the final pages of the chips. The output buffer part responds to a detecting result of the final pages under a condition of performing the continuous readout between the chips. After outputting the data of the final pages through a first output buffer with a large driving capability, outputs or holds the data of the final pages through a second output buffer with a little driving capability.
