Abstract: PURPOSE: To provide the layout of a redundancy circuit, wherein the chip area required for realization of redundancy becomes a minimum area. CONSTITUTION: An array MAR of a programmable nonvolatile memory, which stores a redundancy bit line, a redundancy word line, a defective bit line, which should be functionally replaced respectively, and the address of a word line is provided. The layout of the redundancy circuit is divided into a plurality of the same layout strips LS1-LS4, which intersect the array at right angles and have first and second strip parts at both sides of the array. The first strip part intersects a column-address signal bus CABUS, extending in parallel with the array. The second strip part intersects a row-address signal bus (RABUS), extending in parallel with the array.

Abstract: PURPOSE: To derive optimum performance from a memory by enabling the circuit with a switching edge, making the circuit programmable, and protecting the circuit against noise. CONSTITUTION: A delay unit 23 inputs a low-level signal, which goes up to a high level a delay time corresponding to the contents of memory elements 20 and 22 after a leading edge of a signal ATD is received, to a NOR gate 27. The gate 27 inputs a signal PC as a signal DET to an asymmetrical delay unit 24 through a NOR gate 28, and a low-level data simulation signal SP is outputted which goes up to the high level a delay time based upon the elements 20 and 21 after a leading edge of the signal DET is received. The signal SP is transferred to an output similar circuit 33 and at its completion time, a high level is outputted. Consequently, signals N and L are switched to the low level and the output STP of a continuance expanding circuit 51 goes down to a low level. Consequently, the data loading is completed. This loading lasts accurately in an output circuit 108 during data propagation.

Abstract: PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a multi-purpose memory device suitable for an application example of a wider range independently of whether reading of data is required or not in the asynchronous mode (as in standard memory) in random access or in a synchronous progressive mode in burst type access. SOLUTION: A memory device recognizes modes of access and reading required by a microprocessor, also enables performing self-conditioning of its internal circuit based on such a recognition to perform reading data in a required mode. At the time, an additional external control signal is not required, and sacrifice is not forced in an access time and a reading time as compared with obtained one in the case of a memory device constituted specifically for any one of operation modes for constitution of the same manufacturing technology and conventional technology.

Abstract: PURPOSE: To obtain a load signal generating method and circuit for a non- volatile memory. CONSTITUTION: A circuit 1 is used to generate a variable length data load pulse L depending on the requirement and is provided with a source 5 for applying a short load signal SP and a delay element 19 for generating a long pulse STP when the short load signal appears. Static operation mode is given so that a load pulse is generated continuously through the static operation so long as the critical state (standby condition, low voltage) is continued. An expanded pulse is always generated when the static operation mode terminates, while a delay element 19 is disabled by a command EN when the expanded timing is not required.

Abstract: PURPOSE: To obtain an internal timing method to a rewritable memory and a circuit thereof. CONSTITUTION: A circuit 1 generates slow or fast overall timing configuration and flexible timing enabling the two configuration of pre-charge and detection intervals by giving the levels of two short and long periods. For conduct the generation of the timing, variable asymmetric propagation lines 5, 37 consisting of a series of basic delay elements 6-8, 38, 40 bringing data to an enable or disenable state on the basis of logical signals TIMS, PCS, and DETS stored are contained in the circuit 1, and the state is determined when a memory 100 executed by the circuit is debugged.
