Description

2. Description of the Related Art In general, semiconductor memory devices such as dynamic random access memory (DRAM) have been continuously improved in order to improve the operation speed thereof with an increase in integration degree. In order to improve the operation speed of a DRAM, an SDRAM (Synchronous Dynamic Random Access Memory) that can operate in synchronization with an external clock signal input from the outside has appeared.
However, SDRAM is also insufficient to satisfy the speed of a system requiring high-speed operation. Accordingly, a double data rate (DDR) scheme, which is a method of processing two data in one clock cycle, has been proposed. Since the double data rate RAM (DDR RAM) inputs and outputs two data continuously in synchronization with the rising edge and the falling edge of the external clock signal input from the outside, the high-speed operation becomes possible .

A memory device according to an embodiment of the present invention will be described with reference to FIGS. 1 to 3. FIG. 1 is a block diagram of a memory device according to one embodiment of the present invention, and FIGS. 2 and 3 are timing diagrams showing divided clocks output in a divider.
Hereinafter, for convenience of explanation, it is assumed that the memory device of the present invention is a DDR4 RAM operating at high speed. However, the present invention is not limited thereto.
Referring to FIG. 1, a
The first clock CLK is provided to the first delay unit 105_1 and n-1 frequency dividers 105_2, ..., 105_n through the clock buffer 101_2. The clock buffer 101_2 serves to amplify the first clock CLK. And may provide the first clock bar (CLKB) to the clock buffer 101_2 in order to amplify the first clock (CLK). The first clock bar (CLKB) is the same size as the first clock and has a phase difference of 180 degrees. The clock buffer 101_2 amplifies the magnitude of the first clock CLK and does not change the period of the first clock CLK. Referring to FIG. 2, the clock buffer 101_2 amplifies the first clock CLK to generate an amplified first clock CLK_O having a larger amplitude than the first clock CLK.
The first clock CLK_O amplified by the clock buffer 101_2 is provided to the first delay unit 105_1 and n-1 frequency dividers 105_2, ..., and 105_n.
The n-1 frequency dividers 105_2, ..., and 105_n may be connected in parallel with the clock buffer 101_2 and may divide the amplified first clock CLK_O. Specifically, referring to FIG. 1 and FIG. 2, the 1/2 frequency divider 105_2 can generate a second divided clock CLK_D2 having a
The first delay unit 105_1 outputs the amplified first clock CLK_O without changing the frequency. Since it outputs without changing the frequency, it can be seen in 1/1 frequency. However, the first delay unit 105_1 generates the first divided clock CLK_D1 by delaying the amplified first clock CLK_O by a predetermined time.
The first delay unit 105_1 is necessary for matching the timing skew with the 1/2 to 1 / n divider 105_2, 105_3, ..., 105_n. More specifically, referring to FIG. 2, n-1 frequency dividers 105_2,..., 105_n generate second to N'th frequency bands CLK_D2 to CLK_Dn. However, the amplified first clock CLK_O may be delayed by a predetermined time, that is, d while being divided by the second divided clocks CLK_D2 through n_number dividing clocks CLK_Dn. Accordingly, the first divided clock CLK_D1 is delayed by d like the second through n-th divided clocks CLK_D2, ..., CLK_Dn so that skew is not generated. The first delay unit 105_1 is arranged to delay the first And generates a first divided clock CLK_D1 by delaying the received clock CLK_O by d.
On the other hand, the 1/2 to 1 / n divider 105_2, ..., 105_n can divide the amplified first clock CLK_O into different forms. Referring to FIG. 3, the 1/2 to 1 / n divider 105_2, ..., 105_n generates the second divided clock signal CLK_D2 to the n-th divided clock signal CLK_Dn, And the first clock is generated by delaying the amplified first clock CLK_O by d. In FIG. 2, all of the first through n-th divided clock signals CLK_D1 through CLK_Dn have a duty ratio of 1/2, whereas the first divided clock signals CLK_D1 through CLK_Dn ) Can have a duty less than 1/2. The duty can be expressed as a ratio of ON time to one cycle of the clock.
The clock may have two clock levels, i.e., a first level and a second level. Here, the first level means a clock level operating in the ON state, and the second level means a clock level operating in the OFF state. Therefore, the duty is a ratio of the high level time during one period of the clock when the clock operates at the high level, and is a ratio of the low level during one period when the clock operates at the low level. It is the ratio of level time.
2 and 3 illustrate the case where the high level operates in the ON state, a person skilled in the art will be able to deduce a case where the operation is performed from the low level to the ON state by referring to FIG. 2 and FIG.
Referring to FIG. 3, the duty ratio of the first divided clock signal CLK_D1 is 1/2. However, the duty of the second divided clock CLK_D2 is 1/4, not 1/2. And the duty of the third divided clock CLK_D3 is 1/6. Therefore, the duty of the n-th frequency divider clock CLK_Dn is 1 / (2n). That is, in FIG. 3, the duty from the first divided clock CLK_D1 to the nth divided clock CLK_Dn can be sequentially decreased, and the second to the n-th divided clock CLK_Dn are smaller than 1/2.
The reason why the duty ratios of the first to nth divided clocks CLK_D1, ..., CLK_Dn are sequentially lowered occurs because there is a difference in the method of generating the divided clock. In Fig. 3, unnecessary pulse signals are removed from the provided amplified first clock signal CLK_O to generate first to n-th divided clock signals CLK_D1, ..., CLK_Dn. Specifically, the second divided clock CLK_D2 sets two periods of the amplified first clock CLK_O as one period, and leaves only the first pulse, that is, the 0th pulse in one period, do. The third frequency dividing clock signal CLK_D3 sets three periods of the amplified first clock signal CLK_O as one cycle, and leaves only the first pulse, i.e., the 0th pulse, in one period, and removes all other remaining pulses. Likewise, the n-th frequency dividing clock CLK_Dn sets n periods of the amplified first clock CLK_O as one period and all the other pulses are removed while leaving only the first pulse, i.e., the 0th pulse, in one period . The first divided clock CLK_D1 is delayed only by d compared to the amplified first clock CLK_O, and has the same period as the amplified first clock CLK_O.
Since the first pulse of the amplified first clock CLK_O is left as it is, the high level, that is, the first level, per one cycle of the first to n-th divided clocks CLK_D1, ..., CLK_Dn is All can be the same. The low level, i.e., the second level, of one cycle of the first to n < th > divided clocks CLK_D1, ..., CLK_Dn may be different from each other.
The signal applied to the memory device is generally synchronized with the rising edge of the clock. Thus, only the first pulse, i. E. The zeroth pulse, is needed to synchronize with the signal applied to the memory device and no other pulse within one period is needed. Therefore, even if the amplified first clock CLK_O is divided as shown in FIG. 3, the
2 and 3, the first delay unit 105_1 and the 1/2 to 1 / n divider 105_2, ..., and 105_n additionally amplify the first clock CLK_O, if necessary, Amplification. Therefore, the amplitudes of the first through n-th frequency dividing clocks may be larger than the amplified first clock CLK_O.
1, n divided clocks CLK_D1, ..., CLK_Dn generated through the first delay unit 105_1 and the n-1 frequency dividers 105_2, ..., 105_n are supplied to n mux portions 107_1, ..., 107_n, respectively. That is, each of the n mux portions 107_1, ..., 107_n is connected to the first delay portion 105_1 and the n-1 frequency dividers 105_2, ..., 105_n one-to-one to form first through n-th divided clocks CLK_D1 , ..., CLK_Dn).
The n mux portions 107_1, ..., 107_n select one of the n divided clocks CLK_D1, ..., CLK_Dn. The selected frequency dividing clock S_CLKD is used to generate an internal command signal Internal_command in synchronization with the first signal C_S.
The n muxes 107_1, ..., 107_n are provided with n MRS (Mode Register Set) signals for selecting one frequency-divided clock. The first MRS signal MRS1 is supplied to the first delay unit 105_1 and the second through the n-th MRS signals MRS2, ..., MRSn are supplied to the first to Nth frequency dividers 105_2, ..., .
