Semiconductor memory device using delays to control column signals for different memory regions

Abstract

A semiconductor memory device includes a first signal generation unit configured to sequentially generate first and second delay signals in response to a first column control signal, the first and second delay signals having reflected a delay time and a multiplied delay time selected from a plurality of delay times in correspondence with an arrangement location of a unit memory region, through data is input/output, respectively, and a second signal generation unit configured to generate a second column control signal delayed by the selected delay time as compared with the first column control signal, to determine an activation time point of the second column control signal in response to the first delay signal, and to determine a deactivation time point of the second column control signal in response to the second delay signal.
