With reference to figure 4, which includes a delay circuit 422 and one or door 424.The delay circuit 422 To receive precharging signal PRE, and postpone mono- time intervals of precharging signal PRE.The OR circuit 44 is receiving A postpones signal SDLY and one input signal/S1 (input signal/S1 is the inversion signal of signal S1) from the circuit 42, To generate the bias voltage VA for being applied to NMOS transistor M12.
It is driven respectively by these sub-word line drivers SD_0 to SD_15 referring now to Fig. 2, this little wordline SWL0 to SWL15 It is dynamic.Each in these sub-word line drivers SD_0 to SD_15 is by one of them defeated of these main word lines MWL0 and MWL1 Go out signal and one of them is controlled from multiple secondary main word line enable signal SE0 to SE7 in the sub-word line driver 23 System.In an embodiment of the present invention, when the aggressive mode operates, the main word line driver 21 is according to higher row address signal ADDR (3-10) selects driving main word line MWL0 first, and the sub-word line driver 23 is according to relatively low row address signal ADDR (0-2) selection first drives the sub- wordline SWL0.Illustrate the son below with reference to the circuit diagram of the oscillogram of Fig. 5 and the Fig. 2 and Fig. 4 The function mode of word line driver SD_0.
Referring now to Fig. 5, in time t0, which operates in aggressive mode.Therefore, precharging signal PRE Will not enable and be located at logical zero level.The decoder 44 signal S1 of the generation with logical zero level, and the level shifter 46 Generate the drive signal S2 with GND current potentials.Therefore, NMOS transistor M12 ends and PMOS transistor M11 conductings.According to This mode, circuit SC_0 supplies one supply voltage VH to sub-word line driver SD_0 are patrolled with pulling up the sub- wordline SWL0 to one Collect 1 level.
As shown in figure 5, in time t1, which enters precharge mode.Therefore, all main word lines all will not It is driven and falls within 1 level of logic.Precharging signal PRE understands enable and is located at 1 level of logic.Receiving being somebody's turn to do from Fig. 2 After the precharging signal PRE of instruction decoder 20, the delay circuit 422 of Fig. 4 postpones mono- time intervals of precharging signal PRE td.In the present embodiment, time interval td is that a memory bank is precharged to memory bank active time interval (bank precharge to bank active time interval,tRP).After time interval td, postpones signal SDLY can turn State is to 1 level of logic.Therefore, the current potential of the bias voltage VA generated by the source voltage generator 42 can be quickly by being grounded Voltage GND goes to supply voltage VCC.
With reference to figure 4 and Fig. 5, in precharge mode, which exports the driving that current potential is supply voltage VH Signal S2 makes NMOS transistor M12 be connected and PMOS transistor M11 is made to end, and therefore, circuit SC_0 is for that should be biased Voltage VA to sub-word line driver SD_0.By the current potential changed supplied to the bias voltage VA of transistor M12, the circuit SC_0 supplies ground voltage GND as a driving voltage to sub-word line driver SD_0 before time t2.Circuit SC_0 exists Supply voltage VCC is supplied after time t2 as a driving voltage to sub-word line driver SD_0.
