    Abstract: PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To obtain a semiconductor memory having memory banks in which a design cost for a memory bank decoder is small. SOLUTION: In a semiconductor memory having memory banks, plural memory banks are operated by a memory bank decoder. Even if two groups of the memory bank are controlled through the same memory bank decoder, switching between the memory bank decoders is performed by using a pre- decoder. Thereby, layout of the memory bank decoder having comparatively small memory capacity can be succeeded to memories of memory bank decoder having comparatively large capacity.

    Abstract: PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To prevent an interconnection portion from being made longer, while making a module thinner, in an integrated circuit chip laminated multi-chip module. SOLUTION: A multi-chip module (MCM) is provided with a first integrated circuit 310, a second integrated circuit 320, and a bridge layer 330, in at least one upper side of the second integrated circuit 320. The bridge layer 330 forms a signal path between the first contact section 331 of the bridge layer 330 and the second contact section 336 of the bridge layer 330. In order to transmit a signal from the first integrated circuit 310 to the outside of a package 340 and/or to receive the signal from the outside of the package 340 to the first integrated circuit 310, the bridge layer 330 forms the signal path between the first contact section 331 of the bridge layer 330 and an input/output (I/O) circuit element of the second integrated circuit 320, and also forms the signal path between the I/O circuit element of the second integrated circuit 320 and the second contact section 336 of the bridge layer 330.

    Abstract: An integrated dynamic memory includes a memory cell array having memory cells each assigned to one of a plurality of groups. The plurality of groups are divided into defect-free groups having exclusively defect-free memory cells and into defective groups having at least one defective memory cell. The memory further includes a memory configuration table that contains a list of the defect-free groups and an assignment unit that, based upon the entries in the memory configuration table, executes memory accesses only to those memory cells assigned to a defect-free group. The total capacity of the memory module, then, is not fixed once and for all with fabrication, but, rather, results only after a memory test, or may even vary in the course of the module lifetime.

    Abstract: The method provides parallel amplification of 2 input signals for providing 2 amplified output signals, with alternation of the amplitudes of the input signals within a given time frame, for providing a first output signal which has a relatively large gradient over a first time frame and a lesser gradient over a second time frame and a second output signal which has a relatively small gradient over a first time frame and a greater gradient over a second time frame. An Independent claim for a circuit with 2 driver stages for parallel read-out of signals is also included.

    Abstract: An integrated circuit has a differential amplifier in a basic circuit having two input transistors, a load element and a power source. The power source has an N-type channel MOS transistor whose controlled path is connected to the input transistors and to a supply terminal of the power source. A control terminal of the transistor is connected to a potential that is positive with respect to a reference potential. The supply terminal of the power source is connected to a potential which is negative with respect to the reference potential and which is made available by a voltage source for switching off cell field transistors of a DRAM memory. The gate-source voltage that is increased in this way improves the behavior of the circuit with respect to fluctuations in potential and permits more favorable dimensioning of the transistor.
