Abstract
A semiconductor device includes a memory cell array comprising a plurality of banks and a page size controller. The page size controller decodes a part of a bank selection address or a power supply voltage and a remaining part of the bank selection address to enable one of the plurality of banks or enable two of the plurality of banks to set a page size of the semiconductor device.
Claims20
A semiconductor device comprising:
- a memory cell array including a plurality of banks;
- and
- a page size controller configured to set a page size of the semiconductor device based on one of i) a part of a bank selection address and a power supply voltage, and ii) the part of the bank selection address and a part of a row address, and enable one of the plurality of banks or enable two of the plurality of banks based on a remaining part of the bank selection address.
A semiconductor device comprising:
- a memory cell array including a plurality of banks;
- and
- a page size controller configured to use a part of a row address as a chip ID to enable one bank among the plurality of banks based on a bank selection address in a first operation mode and to use a combination of a part of the bank selection address and the part of the row address as the chip ID to enable at least two banks among the plurality of banks based on a remaining part of the bank selection address in a second operation mode.
A semiconductor device comprising:
- a memory cell array including a plurality of banks;
- and
- a page size controller configured to set a page size of the semiconductor device based on a part of a bank selection address and a power supply voltage, and enable one of the plurality of banks or enable two of the plurality of banks based on a remaining part of the bank selection address.
