Abstract:
Each of memory blocks includes word line groups each having at least one of word lines, memory cells and bit lines. A decoder unit selects couple control units corresponding to the memory blocks to be accessed, and decodes an address signal to select any of the word line groups. A logic of the decoder unit is formed by assigning a bit of the address signal to identify the memory blocks and the couple control units lower than a bit of the address signal to identify the word line groups. Accordingly, the numbers of word lines disposed at the memory blocks can be equalized with each other, and lengths of the bit lines can be shortened. As a result, a wiring delay of each of the bit lines can be minimized, and an access time of a compiled memory can be shortened.
