Description

The sequential control method of synchronous memory body
Technical field
The present invention relates to the sequential control method in a kind of area information storage storer, particularly relate to a kind of sequential control method (Timing control method for operatinga synchronous memory) of synchronous memory body.
Background technology
In in the past 10 years, the speed and the capacity of memory body (be storer, below all be called memory body) array have had sizable improvement.More especially owing to the multiple function in each field, memory body has become the major product of integrated circuit industry.The technology of memory body is by asynchronous pattern, it for example is fast page mode, extension data output (EDO), pulse extension data output (PEDO), being evolved into the synchronous pattern of today, for example is the synchronous dynamic random memory body, directly random memory body bus-bar dynamic random memory body (Direct Rambus DRAM), double data rate synchronous dynamic random memory body (DDR-SDRAM), and link dynamic random memory (SLDRAM) etc. synchronously.
Seeing also shown in Figure 1ly, is the calcspar of the existing known synchronous memory body that is used for first kind of sequential control.In the drawings, demoder 102 is decoded into address value Baddress with the address value Xadress of system, and (Column Select Signal CSL) becomes high levle from low level will to select signal with the corresponding row of this address value Baddress.Reading region data LD (Local Data) (data is data, below all be called data) corresponding to the address of the memory array (Array) 104 of this address value Baddress then.Because the signal level very little (approximately being the accurate potential difference about 100mV) of region data LD, so the signal level of region data LD must be amplified to scope between accurate of 0V and the operating voltage.Therefore, the region data LD that is read by memory array 104 delivers to sensing amplifier (Sense Amplifier) 106 by region data bus-bar (LocalData Bus) 110, by sensing amplifier 106 signal level of the region data LD that received is converted to uri information GD (Global Data) between 0V and the accurate position of operating voltage scope, then uri information GD is delivered to working storage (Register) 108 by uri information bus-bar (Global Data Bus) 112 and keep in.This uri information GD will be temporary in the working storage 108, when next clock signal triggers working storage 108, just send an output data DO to synchronous memory body (Synchronous Memory) 100 by the outside bus-bar (not shown) that is connected.
Above-mentioned action is to finish in synchronous sequence P0, P1, three sequential circulations of P2, and Fig. 2 is for being supplied to the sequential chart of the action of the various signals of synchronous memory body 100 among Fig. 1.See also shown in Figure 2ly, P0 the sequential of synchronous sequence xclk reads a address value Xadress earlier.Then, demoder 102 will be gone and be selected signal (Column Select Signal CSL) exports after being decoded into high levle, and then, memory array 104 reads a region data LD of corresponding its address.
Then, LDB precharge signal end is sent a low level signal and is made the signal level preliminary filling (Precharge) of region data bus-bar 110 to operating voltage.At this moment, GDB precharge signal end is also sent a low level signal and is made the signal level of uri information bus-bar 112 be charged to operating voltage in advance.After region data bus-bar 110 finishes preliminary filling (being that signal LDB precharge transfers high levle to by low level), a region data LD forms the signal level with high-low signal difference gradually at region data bus-bar 110.Similarly, uri information bus-bar 112 finishes (being that signal GDB precharge transfers high levle to by low level) after the preliminary fillings, and a the region data LD that sensing amplifier 106 will have a signal level of high-low signal difference is enlarged into a uri information GD between 0V and the accurate scope of operating voltage.Then, sensing amplifier 106 is delivered to a uri information GD on the uri information bus-bar 112.
Carrying out development, the signal of preliminary fillings, region data signal and amplify and work such as data transmission so demoder 102 carries out decoding, read data, sensing amplifier 106 from memory array 104, all is to finish in P0 sequential.In addition, transferring high levle and signal set at signal LDB precharge to by low level, to transfer between the high levle to form the time span that a region data LD have the high-low signal difference by low level be to be called signal development time (Signal Developing Time).
After a high levle signal decoding was become row selection signal (CSL a+1), P1 the sequential of synchronous sequence xclk at first read a+1 address value Xadress.Then, read a+1 region data LD of corresponding its address.Secondly, region data bus-bar 110 and uri information bus-bar 112 are carried out preliminary filling, then the signal level of a+1 region data LD is enlarged into the signal level of a+1 uri information GD, and a+1 uri information GD delivered to uri information bus-bar 112.At this moment, working storage 108 is temporary in a uri information GD (Gda as shown in Figure 2) on the uri information bus-bar 112.In other words, working storage 108 is in the temporary action of P1 sequential execution data.
Similarly, after a high levle signal decoding was become row selection signal (CSL a+2), P2 the sequential of synchronous sequence xclk at first read a+2 address value Xadress.Then, read a+2 region data LD of corresponding its address.Secondly, region data bus-bar 110 and uri information bus-bar 112 are carried out preliminary filling, and then the signal level with a+2 region data LD is enlarged into the signal level of a+2 uri information GD and a+2 uri information GD is delivered to uri information bus-bar 112.At this moment, a the uri information GD that working storage 108 will before be kept in sends the outside bus-bar (not shown) that is connected to synchronous memory body 100 with a pen output data DO (DOa as shown in Figure 2), so working storage 108 is in the action of P2 sequential execution data output.
Seeing also shown in Figure 3ly, is the calcspar of the existing known synchronous memory body that is used for second kind of sequential control.In Fig. 3, its function is identical with Fig. 1, and Fig. 3 and Fig. 1 difference are synchronous sequence P0, P1, three sequential of P2 corresponding to the position of the device in the memory body synchronously.In other words, i.e. the operational circumstances difference of its device in each synchronous sequence.Fig. 4 is the sequential chart of the execution action of corresponding diagram 3.
See also shown in Figure 4, in Fig. 4 (in conjunction with consult shown in Figure 3), P0 the sequential of synchronous sequence xclk at first reads a address value Xadress, decoded by demoder 102 then.In other words, demoder 102 is carried out the action of decoding P0 sequential.
After a high levle signal decoding was become row selection signal (CSL a+1), P1 the sequential of synchronous sequence xclk at first read a+1 address value Xadress.At this moment, read a region data LD of corresponding its address at memory array 104.Then, LDB precharge signal end is sent a low level signal makes the signal level of region data bus-bar 110 be charged to operating voltage in advance, and GDB precharge signal end is also sent a low level signal and made the signal level of uri information bus-bar 112 be charged to operating voltage in advance.
After region data bus-bar 110 finishes preliminary filling (being that signal LDB precharge transfers high levle to by low level), a region data LD forms the signal level with high-low signal difference gradually at region data bus-bar 110.Similarly, uri information bus-bar 112 finishes (being that signal GDB precharge transfers high levle to by low level) after the preliminary fillings, and a the region data LD that sensing amplifier 106 will have a signal level of high-low signal difference is enlarged into a uri information GD between 0V and the accurate scope of operating voltage.Then, sensing amplifier 106 is delivered to a uri information GD on the uri information bus-bar 112.
So,, all be in P1 sequential, to finish from the work such as development, signal amplification and data transmission that memory array 104 reads data, sensing amplifier 106 execution preliminary fillings, region data signal.In addition, transferring high levle and signal set at signal LDB precharge to by low level, to transfer between the high levle to form the time span that a region data LD have the high-low signal difference by low level be to be called the signal development time.
Similarly, after decoding, read a+2 address value Xadress earlier in P2 the sequential of synchronous sequence xclk.Then, read a+1 region data LD of corresponding its address.Secondly, column selection CSL signal end is sent a high levle signal, and region data bus-bar 110 and uri information bus-bar 112 are carried out preliminary filling.And the signal level of a+1 region data LD is enlarged into the signal level of a+1 uri information GD, and a+1 uri information GD delivered to uri information bus-bar 112.At this moment, a the uri information GD that working storage 108 will before be kept in sends the outside bus-bar (not shown) that is connected to synchronous memory body 100 with a pen output data DO (DOa as shown in Figure 4), so working storage 108 is carried out the action of data storage and data output P2 sequential.
In sum, the work that sensing amplifier is carried out comprises that the preliminary filling of region data bus-bar, the signal of region data develop the required time, transmit uri information to the uri information bus-bar, and it is all finished in a synchronous sequence.And other interior device of memory body also is to finish its work in a synchronous sequence synchronously.Therefore, can know easily, in each synchronous sequence of synchronous memory body, be difficult to very much each device optimized, also so limited the operating speed of synchronous memory body.In addition, the required signal development time of region data is fixed, and makes the signal development time also be subjected to its influence.Therefore, the operating speed of how improving synchronous memory body in the signal development time of minimum is suitable difficulty.

Seeing also shown in Figure 5ly, is a kind of calcspar that is used for the synchronous memory body of sequential control of preferred embodiment of the present invention.In Fig. 5, its function is identical with Fig. 1 and Fig. 3, and Fig. 5 and Fig. 1 and Fig. 3 difference are synchronous sequence P0, P1, three sequential of P2 corresponding to the position of the device in the memory body synchronously.In other words, i.e. the operational circumstances difference of its device in each synchronous sequence.
Seeing also shown in Figure 6ly, is the calcspar that the another kind of preferred embodiment of the present invention is used for the synchronous memory body of sequential control.In Fig. 6, demoder 116 is decoded into row address value X (0)~X (N) and row address value Y (0)~Y (M) with demoder 118 respectively with address value Xadress, and select row selection signal CSL (0)~CSL (N * M) one of them.From memory array 104, read (the region data LD of N * M) then corresponding to these row selection signals CSL (0)~CSL.Owing to the signal level very little (approximately being the accurate potential difference about 100mV) of region data LD, the signal level of region data LD must be promoted to the scope of 0V and the accurate interdigit of operating voltage.Therefore, the region data LD that is read by memory array 104 is for to deliver to sensing amplifier 106 by region data bus-bar 110.At this moment, sensing amplifier 106 is converted to the region data LD of little signal level the uri information GD of the signal level between 0V and operating voltage according to clock signal LDB precharge, gate, precharge, set, GDB precharge etc. that logical circuit 114 sent.Then, uri information GD being delivered to working storage 108 by uri information bus-bar 112 keeps in.When receiving a clock signal, promptly send the outside bus-bar (not shown) that an output data DO is connected to synchronous memory body 100 by working storage 108.
Seeing also shown in Figure 7ly, is the circuit diagram of the sensing amplifier of preferred embodiment of the present invention.Circuit shown in Fig. 7 is the part circuit of sensing amplifier 106 (consulting shown in Figure 5), and this circuit only is that the single area data is done discussion to (Pair) (the right number of the region data of region data bus-bar 110 depends on the figure place of output data DO) and single general-purpose data to (the right number of the uri information of uri information bus-bar 112 depends on the figure place of output data DO).
In Fig. 7, PMOS 702 and PMOS 704 are for to be charged to VCC (being operating voltage) with the region data bus-bar in advance to 706,708, PMOS 710 and PMOS 712 are charged to VCC for signal is amplified bus-bar in advance to 714,716, and PMOS 718 and PMOS 720 are for to be charged to VCC with the uri information bus-bar in advance to 722,724.PMOS 726 and PMOS 728 are the usefulness as switch, and it is for transferring to signal amplification bus-bar respectively on 714,716 with the region data bus-bar to region data LDx on 706,708 and LDx.And NMOS 740 and NMOS 742 also are the usefulness as switch, and it transfers to the uri information bus-bar respectively on 722,724 for signal being amplified bus-bar to the uri information GDx that has been exaggerated on 714,716 and GDx.PMOS 730, PMOS 732, NMOS 734, NMOS 736 and PMOS 738 are the usefulness as the signal amplification, uri information GDx and GDx that it is amplified to the signal level between 0V and VCC voltage respectively for region data LDx and LDx with little signal level.
Seeing also shown in Figure 8ly, is the sequential chart of the circuit diagram of Fig. 7.In Fig. 8, in P0 the sequential of synchronous sequence xclk, it reads a address value Xadress earlier.Then, after demoder 102 was carried out a decoding action, memory array 104 read a region data LD of corresponding its address from a zone.
When reading address value and decoding, signal LDB precharge is a high levle, and PMOS702,704 does not carry out the action of preliminary filling to region data to bus-bar 706,708.Similarly, when signal gate is a high levle, PMOS 726,728 does not do the action of data transmission, and signal set is a high levle, and NMOS 740,742 does not do the action of data transmission.When signal precharge and signal set were low level, PMOS 710,712 amplified bus-bar to signal and does not carry out the action of preliminary filling to 714,716.On the other hand, when signal GDB precharge is low level, PMOS 718,720 with the uri information bus-bar to 722,724 voltages that are charged to VCC in advance.
When finishing to read action such as address value, decoding, row selection signal CSL end is sent a high levle signal, synchronous signal LDB precharge end is sent a low level signal, makes 702,704 pairs of region data bus-bars of PMOS be charged to VCC voltage in advance to 706,708.When the region data bus-bar finished preliminary filling to 706,708, signal LDB precharge transferred high levle to by low level.At this moment, deliver to region data by memory array 104 (consulting shown in Figure 5) a region data of bus-bar 706,708 developed into different signal level to LDx with the LDx commencing signal.
Then, signal gate transfers low level to by high levle, and PMOS 726,728 develops into signal a region data of different signal level LDx and LDx are delivered to signal amplification bus-bar to 714,716 by the region data bus-bar to 706,708.At this moment, because signal set is a low level.So ' LDB precharge ' signal change into from low level high levle and ' set ' signal change into from low level high levle during, a region data little by little develops signal level to LDx and LDx, and promptly is called the signal development time during this.
As mentioned above, demoder 102 (consulting shown in Figure 5) is carried out decoding; Sensing amplifier 106 (consulting shown in Figure 5) is to the preliminary filling of region data to bus-bar 706,708; From memory array 104 (consulting shown in Figure 5) acquisition data; A region data develops into different signal level at the region data bus-bar to 706,708 with LDx to LDx; And a region data done work such as signal amplification to LDx and LDx, all be in P0 sequential, to finish.
In P1 the sequential of synchronous sequence xclk, it has been carried out and has read a+1 address value Xadress and decoding.Array selecting signal CSL end is sent a low level signal, and array selecting signal CSL (a+1) end is sent a high levle signal.During CSL triggered, ' LDB precharge ' end was sent the low level signal so that the region data bus-bar is carried out preliminary filling to 706,708.After the LDB preliminary filling finishes, the signal development of a+1 region data to LDx and LDx will be finished.Carry out address value Xadress read and when decoding, signal set will transfer high levle to by low level.So, uri information GDx and GDx that PMOS730 and 732, NMOS734 and 736, PMOS738 are amplified to the signal level between 0V and VCC voltage respectively with the region data LDx and the LDx of little signal level.NMOS 740,742 delivers to uri information bus-bar to 722,724 by signal amplification bus-bar to 714,716 to GDx and GDx with a uri information.And working storage 108 (consulting shown in Figure 5) will temporarily be stored in uri information to a uri information on the bus-bar 722,724 to GDx and GDx.So, in P1 sequential, performed step comprises (a+1) address is read and decodes, the signal development that (a+1) region data is right, a uri information amplified GDx and GDx and be sent to uri information by NMOS 722,724 bus-bar 722,724, and in working storage 108, temporarily be stored in uri information to a uri information on the bus-bar 722,724 to GDx and GDx.
Similarly, in P2 the sequential of synchronous sequence xclk, it also for reading a+2 address value Xadress earlier, is decoded then.Then, read a+2 region data of corresponding its address to LDx and LDx.When row selection signal CSL (a+1) is low level and CSL (a+1) during for high levle, region data is carried out preliminary filling to bus-bar 706,708 and uri information to bus-bar 722,724.Then, finish of the signal development of a+2 region data to LDx and LDx.Then a+2 region data is enlarged into a+2 uri information to GDx and GDx and be sent to the uri information bus-bar to 722,724 to LDx and LDx.At last, uri information temporarily is stored in the working storage 108 (consulting shown in Figure 5) GDx and GDx a uri information on the bus-bar 722,724.At this moment, previous a temporary uri information GDx will be transferred into the outside bus-bar (not shown) that synchronous memory body 100 (consulting shown in Figure 5) is connected by output data DO end (DOa as shown in Figure 5) with GDx, so working storage 108 is in the function of P2 sequential execution data output.
In sum, the work that sensing amplifier is carried out is the required time of signal development of the preliminary filling and the region data of region data bus-bar, and it is to finish in a synchronous sequence.And other work that sensing amplifier is carried out, as with uri information be sent to the uri information bus-bar, it is to finish in next synchronous sequence.So, sensing amplifier only needs to finish the preliminary filling and development required time of regional data signal of region data bus-bar in clock pulse circulation.Transmit uri information to uri information bus-bar and be configured in next cycle, and hidden the pre-charging time of region data bus-bar.' LDBprecharge ' signal change into by low level high levle during with ' set ' signal change into by low level high levle during, be referred to as the signal development time, and it depends on clock pulse cycling time.So memory body speed can be done the oneself and adjust in the signal development time.In such sequential is distributed, can make synchronous memory body in a synchronous sequence, finish every work fifty-fifty.Therefore, synchronous sequence can fully be utilized, and can improve the operating speed of synchronous memory body.Furthermore, the signal development time that is used for region data can change, and can be used to shorten the running time.Generally speaking, the present invention can increase the operating speed of synchronous memory body.
The above, it only is preferred embodiment of the present invention, be not that the present invention is done any pro forma restriction, though the present invention discloses as above with preferred embodiment, yet be not in order to limit the present invention, any those skilled in the art, in not breaking away from the technical solution of the present invention scope, when the method that can utilize above-mentioned announcement and technology contents are made a little change or be modified to the equivalent embodiment of equivalent variations, but every content that does not break away from technical solution of the present invention, according to technical spirit of the present invention to any simple modification that above embodiment did, equivalent variations and modification all still belong in the scope of technical solution of the present invention.
