Abstract

PURPOSE:To initialize a RAM in a very short time by providing a means which selects all word lines of the RAM simultaneously and a means which gives data to all bit lines of the RAM simultaneously. CONSTITUTION:When a signal RESET is set to the high level ''1'', outputs of OR gates ORy0-ORyn go to ''1'' to select all word lines of RAM cells simultaneously. Since outputs of all OR gates ORx0-ORxn connected to bit lines go to ''1'' when the signal RESET is set to ''1'', ''1'' is written in all RAM cells simultaneously, and all RAM cells are initialized with initial value ''1''. In case that they are initialized with the low level ''0'', NOR gates are used as gates ORx0-ORxn, and signals of lines D0-Dn are inverted and are inputted to gates ORx0-ORxn.

The OR gate output becomes '1' at the same time and selects the word lines of all RAM cells at the same time. Also, when the RE8ET signal is set to @111, the bit liK is connected and 90 Rx
Since the outputs of o to 0Rxn all become ``1'' at the same time, ``1'' is written into all RAM cells at the same time, and all RAMs are initialized with the initial value @1@.
