Data Path Having Grounded Precharge Operation And Test Compression Capability

View page
US Patent:
7061817, Jun 13, 2006
Filed:
Jun 30, 2004
Appl. No.:
10/883619
Inventors:
George Raad - Boise ID, US
Chulmin Jung - Boise ID, US
Assignee:
Micron Technology, Inc. - Boise ID
International Classification:
G11C 29/00
US Classification:
365201, 365203, 365190
Abstract:
A data path for coupling data between a memory cell and an input/output (IO) line sense amplifier. An IO line coupling circuit is coupled to a pair of global data lines and a pair of local data lines to couple and decouple each of the global data lines to and from a voltage supply based on the voltage levels of the local data lines for the memory read operation. For the memory write operation, the IO line coupling circuit couples and decouples each of the global data lines to and from a respective one of the local data lines. The data path also includes a first precharge circuit coupled to the global data lines to couple the global data lines to ground to precharge the signal lines prior to a memory read or write operation, and can further include a test compression circuit coupled to the global data lines.

Line Amplifier To Supplement Line Driver In An Integrated Circuit

US Patent:
7212460, May 1, 2007
Filed:
Dec 5, 2005
Appl. No.:
11/294729
Inventors:
Chulmin Jung - Boise ID, US
George Raad - Boise ID, US
Assignee:
Micron Technology, Inc. - Boise ID
International Classification:
G11C 7/00
G11C 8/00
US Classification:
365207, 365208, 36518905
Abstract:
A method and circuitry for boosting a driven signal along a circuit line so as to reduce RC delays is disclosed. In one embodiment, the circuitry includes a line amplifier positioned at a distance from the circuitry that drives signals onto the line, for example, across a memory array. The line amplifier detects the driven signal on the line at early stages, and even before the signal reaches its full potential, the amplifier amplifies that signal and drives it back to the line to help boost the detected signal. In a preferred embodiment, the amplifier comprises a differential amplifier capable of boosting one of two input signal lines. In an alternative embodiment, the amplifier output may additionally input to a feedback loop, which loop ultimately drives a pull-up transistor to boost the detected signal and passes it back to the line to even further assist the differential amplifier in boosting. Use of the disclosed circuitry benefits, as one example, the boosting of a DRAM column select line that passes a long distance through the memory array.

US Patent:
7433249, Oct 7, 2008
Filed:
Feb 6, 2006
Appl. No.:
11/347961
Inventors:
Chulmin Jung - Boise ID, US
Assignee:
Micron Technology, Inc. - Boise ID
International Classification:
G11C 5/14
US Classification:
36518909, 36518907, 365226, 327536, 327538, 323281
Abstract:
A memory device includes an equalization voltage generator. The equalization voltage generator includes an oscillator and a charge pump to produce a first voltage, which may be used as an equalization voltage for pairs of complementary digit lines. The oscillator is controlled by an oscillator control signal, which is produced by a feedback and control loop of the equalization voltage generator. The feedback and control loop includes a reference generator circuit to produce a stable, internal reference signal that is clamped at a maximum reference voltage. A comparator of the feedback and control loop compares the internal reference signal with a second voltage, which is proportional to the first voltage. The comparator causes the oscillator to turn on when the second voltage is lower than the reference voltage, and causes the oscillator to turn off when the second voltage is higher than the reference voltage.

Filed:
Dec 27, 2006
Appl. No.:
11/646735
Inventors:
Chulmin Jung - Boise ID, US
Tae Kim - Boise ID, US
Assignee:
Micron Technology, Inc. - Boise ID
International Classification:
G11C 7/02
US Classification:
365207, 365205, 365196, 365204, 365203
Abstract:
A sense amplifier having an amplifier stage with decreased gain is described. The sense amplifier includes a first input/output (“I/O”) node and a second complementary I/O node. The sense amplifier includes two amplifier stages, each for amplifying a signal on one of the I/O nodes. The first amplifier stage, having a first conductivity-type, amplifies one of the I/O node towards a first voltage. The second amplifier stage, having a second conductivity-type, amplifies the other I/O node towards a second voltage. The sense amplifier also includes a resistance circuit coupled to the second amplifier stage to reduce the gain of the second amplifier stage thereby reducing the rate of amplification of the signal on the corresponding I/O node.
