    Abstract: An integrated circuit memory device includes a two-dimensional memory array in which the first and second dimensions extend in first and second directions respectively. The memory device further includes a decoder for the first dimension and a plurality of fuses between the decoder and the memory array. Upon encountering a defective storage cell in the memory array, the appropriate fuse can be cut to physically segregate the decoder from the defective cell. This allows the memory to operate without any delay inserted for switching to a spare or redundant memory array of storage cells, thus maximizing the memory operating speed. In a preferred embodiment, the fuses are arranged such that the relative spacing between the fuses proceeds substantially along the second direction and the fuses are oriented lengthwise in the first direction. By following this arrangement, the impact on the layout area for the memory device is minimal.

    Abstract: An internal boosted voltage generator for a semiconductor memory device eliminates excessive increases in boosted voltage and reduces current consumption even though the power supply voltage increases. The internal boosted voltage generator includes a pumping portion for pumping a signal from an output node in response to a control signal, a precharging portion for precharging the output node of the pumping portion, and a controlling portion interposed between the pumping portion and the precharge portion. The controlling portion is a pulse generator that varies the precharge time of the precharging portion by varying the pulse with of an output signal according to the power supply voltage. The output signal of the controlling portion has a relatively narrow pulse width at high power supply voltages and a wider pulse width at low power supply voltages. Therefore, the device is not exposed to excessive stress even though the power supply voltage increases greatly.
