Description of the Invention: The present invention relates to a semiconductor memory device; and more particularly, to a method capable of reducing current consumption by preventing unnecessary clock output A delay locked loop (DLL) drives the control circuit. [Prior Art] A semiconductor memory device operating at a high speed such as a dual data rate synchronous dynamic random access memory (ddr SDRAM) transmits a bedding material in the same manner as an external clock. For this high speed operation, clock synchronization must be established. The DLL circuit is built into the semiconductor to control the timing of the data sent from the DRAM to the outside depending on the external clock to synchronize the data with the clock. In other words, the DLL circuit is used to receive an external clock and output data based on the external clock. Figure 1 is a block diagram of a conventional DLL circuit, and Figure 2 is a diagram! The general-purpose DLL driver controller shown in Figure 1 is a circuit diagram. Referring to FIG. 1, the conventional DLL circuit includes a DLL clock generator 3, which includes a clock buffer, a delay line, a phase comparator, a delay controller, and a delayed copy. model. The dll clock generator 300 generates a DLL clock irclk and ifclk synchronized with the phase of the external clock by performing a phase update. The DLL circuit also includes a DLL driver 200 for driving the internal clock signals irclk and ifclk, and a D11 drive controller 100 for controlling the on/off operation of the DLL driver 200. As illustrated in FIG. 2, the DLL drive controller 1A includes an n〇r gate NR that accepts a signal PDM indicating whether to enter the power saving mode, and contains information about the update from 112688.doc 1309837. Signal SREF. And N0RMR provides a signal deletion to determine whether to operate the DLL driver 200. The conventional DLL circuit constructed as above allows the muscle driver to be turned off during the power saving mode of the memory to achieve low power consumption. In addition to the power save mode or the self-updating mode, once an external clock is input, the DIX driver under the control of the existing dll drive controller i (10) provides the output unconditionally. The DLL is always enabled during the feed mode interval to drive H2GG, and thus the DLL clock is triggered even during partial time intervals of the mode in which the clock is not required. In the conventional DLL circuit constructed as above, the output is coupled to a plurality of buffers and transistor gates having an output data path having a large capacitance value. The more often the output clock is triggered, the higher the current consumption in the DRAM. This current consumption can amount to a few mA in total. Therefore, the conventional DLL circuit generates a clock even when it is not used, thereby consuming energy unnecessarily. SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION Accordingly, it is an object of the present invention to provide a DLL circuit capable of preventing a dll clock from being meaninglessly triggered during any time interval in a normal mode as well as a power saving mode or a self-updating mode. Limit the trigger to the actual time interval of the DLL clock to reduce (10) Zhao's operating current. According to an aspect of the present invention, a DLL drive control circuit is provided, comprising: a DLL driver for driving a clock; and a dll drive control for responding to having a function associated with an active mode The information 112688.doc 1309837 - signal generates a control signal to control the operation of the DLL driver. The DLL driver controller includes: a counter for counting the DLL clock to generate a plurality of bits. a counter value; a comparator for comparing the count value with a set value having a plurality of bits, and generating an activated equal signal when the two values are the same; and an SR latch for using The signal is received by the equal signal and the information associated with the active mode to provide the control signal. As described above, the present invention allows the DLL to be triggered during a partial time interval of the active mode when the signal associated with the active mode (read or write) is input only when the DLL driver is turned off. pulse. Other objects and advantages of the present invention will be understood from the following description. DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS Hereinafter, the preferred embodiments of the present invention will be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings, in which the present invention can be readily implemented by those skilled in the art. Circle 3 is a block diagram of a DLL circuit in accordance with a preferred embodiment of the present invention. As illustrated in FIG. 3, the DLL circuit of the present invention includes: a clock generator 500' having a clock buffer, a delay line, a phase comparator, a delay controller, and a delay replica model, and is used to borrow A DLL clock irclk&ifcik; DLL driver 400 for synchronizing the phase with the external clock by performing phase update, which is used to drive 〇[[clock signal and; and -DLL driver controller, which is used to respond to The signal with the information associated with the active mode controls the operation of the DLL driver. Figure 4 illustrates a detailed block diagram of the DLL drive controller of the present invention shown in Figure 3, 112688.doc 1309837. As shown in FIG. 4, the DLL driver controller 300 includes a counter 310 for counting the DLL clock irclk to generate a count value having a plurality of bits, and a comparator 330 for comparing the a count value and a set value 320 having a plurality of bits to generate an activated equal signal equal when the two values are the same; and an SR latch 340 for accepting the equal signal equal and having an active mode The associated information signal RD info is provided to provide the control signal DEN. The information related to the delay, for example, can be used as the set value > 320, which is the set value of the mode register set (MRS). This information can be burst length (BL) or Cas delay (CL). The operation of the DLL circuit of the present invention shown in Figs. 3 and 4 will be described in detail hereinafter. The counter 310 counts the external DLL clock irclk and generates a count value having a plurality of bits and supplies it to the comparator 330. At comparator 330, the plurality of bits of the count value are compared to the bits of set value 320 to initiate an equal signal when they match each other. The SR latch 340 receives the activated equal signal equal and the signal RD info having the information ί associated with the active mode, and activates the control signal DEN. When the activated control signal DEN is input to the counter 310 as the reset signal RST, the counter 3 1 0 is reset to restart counting the DLL clock irclk. FIG. 5 is a detailed circuit diagram of the comparator 330 shown in FIG. As illustrated in FIG. 5, the comparator 330 is provided with a plurality of EX-NOR gates EXNR for receiving the corresponding values of the count value and the set value 320, and a NAND gate ND3 for receiving the plurality of EX- An output of each of the NOR gates EXNR; and an inverter INT2 for generating an equal signal equal based on the NAND gate output signal 112688.doc 1309837 -. • Figure 6 is a detailed circuit diagram of the SR latch 340 shown in Figure 4. As shown in FIG. 6, the SR latch 340 includes an inversion · ΙΝΤ1 for receiving a signal RD inf 具有 having a message associated with the active mode, a first NAND gate ND1, 丨Receiving an output of the inverter inti via an input terminal; and a second NAND gate nd2 for receiving the equal signal equal and the output of the first NAND gate ND1 to provide an output signal to the other input of the first NAND gate ND1 Terminal. The 811 latch 34 is used to activate the control signal DEN when the signal (10)info having the information associated with the "" is activated, and the control signal is revoked when the equal signal equai is activated. As described above, the DLL drive controller 3 of the present invention performs only when the clock is needed by performing an operation on whether or not the clock is actually needed even in the normal mode and how many clocks are needed as necessary. The DLL driver 400 can be used to selectively output the clock. The DLL drive controller 1 controls the shutdown operation of the clock buffer 2〇〇 only in the range of no clock (e.g., power save mode or update mode). Therefore, unnecessary current consumption is prevented. • Figure 7 illustrates a detailed block diagram of a DLL clock generator 5A, such as a DLL controlled by a scratchpad. Referring to FIG. 7, the DLL clock generator 5A generally includes a clock buffer 10, a frequency divider 2A, a phase comparator 3A, a delay controller 40, a delay line 50, and a dummy delay line 6A. And a delayed copy modeling portion 70. The clock buffer ίο receives and buffers the external clock clk&clkb and generates an internal clock signal iDvd_clk. The frequency divider 20 divides the internal clock iDvd_cik to generate a DLL source clock Dvd_clk and a reference clock based on the internal time 112688.doc .1309837 ^Dvd-clk. Typically the 'source clock' is generated by reducing the frequency of the external clock via the frequency divider to reduce the power consumption of the DLL circuit. The phase comparator 30 is a device that compares the input clock of the DLL circuit with its output clock and detects the phase difference therebetween. That is, the phase of the reference clock ref_elk from (4) 与 is compared with the feedback signal feedback clock fed back via the internal circuit of the DLL circuit, thereby controlling the delay control 40 depending on the comparison result. _ Delay (4) 11 4G contains the logic elements that determine the input path and the bidirectional shift register that changes the direction of the path. The shift register receives four input signals: Performs a shift operation. Its - initial input condition allows the initial maximum/minimum delay by holding both ends. Two signals are input for each of the right shift and the left shift, and the individual two signals have a high level time interval such that they do not overlap each other for the shift operation. The delay line 50 is a circuit for delaying the phase of the external clock. The degree of phase delay is determined by phase comparator 30. The delay path ® that determines the phase delay is determined under the control of the delay controller 40. The delay line includes a plurality of unit delay units in which the NAND gates are coupled. The inputs of each of the unit delay units are coupled to respective corresponding shift registers. The path at which the value at the output stage of the shift register is at a high level is determined to be the path for receiving the clock through the clock buffer. There are delay lines for the rising edge clock and for the falling edge clock. This is to minimize the subsequent distortion (duty ratio distortion) in either direction by equally processing the rising edge and the falling edge. 112688.doc -10· 1309837. The dummy delay line 60 is a delay line provided for the feedback signal applied to the phase comparator 30, and has the same configuration as the delay line 50. The delayed copy modeling portion 70 pre-models the delay factor from the receipt of the external clock to the delay line 50 until the output clock of the delay line 50 is delivered to the outside of the wafer. The correct delay factor is used to determine a distortion value that is the performance of the DLL circuit. The delayed copy modeling portion 70 can use the method of shrinking, simplifying, and using the basic circuit as it is. It can be designed in advance so that the delayed copy modeling portion 70 models the clock buffer, the DLL > driver, the R/F divider, and an output buffer as they are. Figure 8 is a timing chart for describing a DLL drive control method according to the present invention. As shown in Fig. 8, if an external signal RD info having information associated with an active mode (such as a read or write mode) is received, the control signals DENR and DENf are activated. If the count value B and the set value A match each other, the control signals DENR and DENf are revoked by the activated equal signal equal. The DLL driver 400 is driven only during the start time interval of the control signals DENR and DENf to trigger the DLL clocks RCLK_DLL and FCLK_DLL. The rising DLL clock RCLK_DL is triggered within the range of the high pulse interval of the rising control signal DENR, and the falling DLL clock FCLK_DLL is triggered within the range of the high pulse time interval of the falling control signal DENf. This timing diagram may vary in part based on the operating conditions of the DRAM, and the timing diagrams shown herein are one example of various examples. According to another embodiment of the present invention, for a wide variety of applications, if the DLL drivers are not single but plural, it is also possible to construct the DLL drive controller accordingly. 112688.doc -11 - 1309837 As explained above, the present invention has the advantage that, by virtue of the configuration of the present invention, the current flowing insignificantly can be reduced by continuously controlling the current consumed by the increase in the clock speed, This greatly reduces current consumption.
