望ましい。2. Description of the Related Art In semiconductor memories, it is often required to reduce current consumption during standby (standby). That is, in the memory cell, there is a case where the leakage current flows more than the allowable value although it operates normally and there is no functional problem. If such a memory cell exists, the standby current will increase, so it is desirable to consider it as a defective memory cell and disuse it, and switch it to a redundant memory cell.

ことからも問題である。Here, a memory cell in which a leak current exceeding a permissible value is generated is found by using a tester, and the laser fuse 4 connected between the memory cell and the power supply terminal 3 which can be regarded as a defect is blown. As a result, the leak path is cut off and replaced with a spare (redundant) memory cell. Recently, the memory capacity has been increased. Therefore, if the wiring resistance of the common power supply line 2 increases, the power supply voltage to each memory cell 1 becomes far from the terminal 3. As a result, the operating margin is reduced, which is a problem. That is, there is a problem in that the memory capacity has recently been increased and the common power supply line 2 is lengthened.

It is possible to replace a memory cell with a leak current larger than the allowable value with a redundant cell and to expect a stable operation without lowering the power supply voltage and increasing the chip size due to an increase in the wiring resistance of the common power supply line to be supplied. It was done like this.

とである。That is, the present invention divides the common power supply line into N,
A power supply voltage supply means for increasing the side effect is provided so as to connect them at each boundary of the division points, and the power supply voltage drop from the divided power supply line closer to the power supply end as seen from the means is increased to the power supply voltage before the drop. By raising the voltage and preventing the voltage drop on the side far from the power supply terminal, the power supply voltage to each memory cell in the row direction is kept high. For this reason, the operation in each memory cell is ensured, the fluctuation of the power supply can be suppressed even in the transient response of the operation, and the common power supply line is kept at the ground potential after the fuse is blown. Stabilization of operation can be expected by eliminating the floating state of the common power supply line after disconnecting. Further, for the plurality of row selection lines, one common power supply line and one fuse can be used, so that the area occupied by the chip can be reduced and the number of fuses to be cut is extremely small. Reliability is improved. This is because the number of memory cells attached to a single common power supply line and row selection line increases under the recent trend toward large-capacity memory. This can also be said that the reliability decreases as the number of times increases.

To the contrary, by supplying Vcc again, the voltage drop becomes Va ′ = Va / 2 as shown in FIG. 3 as compared with the conventional example, and the voltage drop can be half that of the conventional example.
Therefore, each memory cell 1 can be supplied with a relatively high power supply voltage with less voltage effect than the conventional example. Therefore, the fluctuation of the power supply is small even in the transient response of the operation, and the operation margin is improved. In addition, since the common power supply line 2 is held at the ground level, stabilization of the operation can be expected.

The number of chips increases, the length of one common power supply line and row selection line also increases, and the number of memory cells 1 in these lines also increases, increasing the chip occupying area and increasing the size of one common power supply. There is a high possibility that a leaky memory cell exists in the line or row selection line. Therefore, it becomes necessary to blow a plurality of fuses 4 in the cell array, which causes a reliability problem. However, in the case of FIG. 4, the common power supply line 23 common to each row selection line 22 can be regarded as one, and moreover, only one fuse 4 at the Vcc supply end is required to be cut off, so that the chip occupation area is reduced. The increase is small, and the reliability at the time of cutting the fuse is also improved.
