Semiconductor integrated circuit memory

Abstract

A semiconductor memory includes memory cell blocks, a burst-length information generating circuit which generates burst-length information based on a burst length, and a block enable circuit which receives the burst-length information. The block enable circuit selectively enables one of the memory cell blocks when the burst length is equal to or shorter than a predetermined burst length and selectively enables a plurality of memory cell blocks based on the burst length when the burst length is longer than the predetermined burst length. Data are read from the above-mentioned one or plurality of memory cell blocks.
