Abstract
A semiconductor device may be provided. The semiconductor device may be configured to shift storage positions of data and error information on the data to store the data into shifted storage positions based on the address signals having a certain combination being inputted a predetermined number of times.
Claims13
A semiconductor device comprising:
- a control circuit configured to generate a control signal including a pulse which is generated based on address signals having a certain combination being inputted a predetermined number of times or more and to generate shifting signals which are counted based on the address signals having the certain combination being inputted the predetermined number of times or more, during a write operation;
- a data input/output (I/O) circuit configured to shift data and error information on the data to generate internal data, based on the pulse of the control signal;
- and
- a memory area configured to store the internal data in a page which is selected by the address signals having the certain combination during the write operation and configured to output the internal data stored in the page which is selected by the address signals having the certain combination during a read operation.
1 more element
A method of receiving and outputting data, the method comprising:
- comparing the number of times that address signals having a certain combination are inputted with a predetermined number of times during a write operation;
- and
- converting data by generating a control signal including a pulse which is generated based on the address signals having a certain combination being inputted the predetermined number of times or more, by generating shifting signals which are counted whenever the address signals having a certain combination are inputted the predetermined number of times or more, and by shifting the data and error information on the data by the number of times that the pulse of the control signal is generated to generate internal data.
