  • Patent number: 7808835
    Abstract: In a memory cell array which is constituted with flash memory, a pair of a positive memory cell and a negative memory cell, to which data with mutually opposite values are written, is plurally provided. Bit lines and I/O lines connected to the memory cells of a data reading object are charged, and then a potential WL of a word line connected to the data reading object memory cells is raised. Hence, currents flow in the data reading object memory cells in accordance with the data that were written, and consequently one of a potential BL and a potential BLN of the I/O lines begins to fall. When one of the potentials BL and BLN falls below the circuit threshold of a sense amplifier, reading data is established, and the established reading data is outputted as a sense amplifier output signal SAOUT.

  • Patent number: 7006385
    Abstract: A nonvolatile memory device includes a memory cell array, a control circuit, a voltage boost circuit, a timer circuit, a discharge circuit and a sensor circuit. The control circuit generates an erase execution (EE) signal in response to an erase command (EC) signal, stops the EE signal and generates a discharge control (DC) signal in response to an erase termination (ET) signal, stops the DC signal in response to a discharge termination (DT) signal, and stops the EE signal and the DC signal in response to a reset signal. The boost circuit provides high voltage in response to the EE signal. The timer circuit generates the ET signal after receiving the EE signal. The discharge circuit discharges the high voltage and the sensor is enabled in response to the DC signal or the reset signal. The sensor generates the DT signal when the high voltage drops to a predetermined voltage.

  • Patent number: 6750691
    Abstract: A novel measurement method is provided capable of measuring characteristics of semiconductor integrated circuit devices without incurring the influence of external measuring means. A prescribed delay time applied to an address supplied from a microprocessor 11 to a memory 12 during normal operation is increased and a critical time where data corresponding to the address can no longer be read in by the microprocessor 11 from the memory 12 via the latch circuit 14 correctly is obtained. The delay time with which the address is supplied to the latch circuit 14 is increased with the address being supplied in a short-circuited manner to the latch circuit 14 rather than being supplied to the memory 12 and a short-circuit critical delay time where the address can no longer be read in correctly is obtained. A time difference corresponding to a difference in critical delay times is then obtained as the memory access time of the semiconductor integrated circuit device 10.

  • Patent number: 6303876
    Abstract: An LSI package structure having a smaller size in which the wiring length is shortened. The wiring structure for connecting the LSI 2 with the wiring board 1 comprises first connecting terminals 3 arrayed on the LSI 2 and second connecting terminals 6 arrayed on the wiring board 1. The first connecting terminals 3 are arrayed on the outer periphery 5 of the facing surface 4 which faces the wiring board 1 and the second connecting terminals 6 are arrayed on the interfacing surface 7 which intersects with the outer periphery 5. In such a structure, the wiring board 1 is similar to the LSI 2 in size. The facing surface 4 actually intersects with the intersecting face 7 for forming a intersecting line 8. The facing surface 4 substantially intersects with the intersecting face 7 along the intersecting line 8. Such a structure makes the size of the wiring board 1 smaller than that of the LSI 2.
