Abstract: When a first memory cell storing data ‘0’ is read, an associated word line is set at an ‘H’ level, and an associated NMOS is turn on by a signal having an ‘H’ level so as to select the first memory cell. In the first memory cell, a drain voltage is reduced to a grounding level via the NMOS, and an electrical potential difference is generated between a source and the drain. However, no channel is formed so that no electrical current flows. Since a parasitic capacitance exists between associated bit lines, the electrical potential of a node is reduced to the ground level due to the coupling effect of the parasitic capacitance. Accordingly, a charging current flows to the node. In addition, a direct current flows from the node to the ground via another NMOS. Consequently, electrical charging to the parasitic capacitance starts earlier, and a reading delay time can be reduced.

Abstract: As a power-supply voltage VCC is applied to a second terminal, a latch is reset by a reset signal POR from a power-on reset unit. Subsequently, as the voltage of a signal IN applied to a first terminal is increased to higher than the voltage VCC by a threshold voltage Vth of a PMOS 11, the PMOS 11 turns on, causing a node N1 to become “H.” Thus, a test mode is set in the latch. Subsequently, even if the signal IN is reduced to VCC or lower, the test mode is maintained. A high-voltage test can be conducted by increasing the power-supply voltage at the second terminal, thereby eliminating the need for applying the first terminal with a higher voltage than required to set the test mode. It is therefore possible to prevent a gate oxide film of a buffer from being destroyed.
