摘要： Write control circuitry and control method are provided for a memory array configured with multiple memory subarrays. The write control circuitry includes multiple subarray write controllers associated with the multiple memory subarrays, each subarray write controller selectively enabling a local write control signal to its associated memory subarray. The selectively enabling is responsive to a received subarray select signal, wherein only one subarray select signal is active at a time. At least some subarray write controllers are powered at least in part via a switched power node, wherein powering of the switched power node is distributively implemented among the subarray write controllers. In one example, the distributively implemented powering of the switched power node is accomplished via multiple inverters distributed among the subarray write controllers, each inverter having an output coupled to the switched power node, and an input coupled to receive a global write enable signal.

摘要： A semiconductor memory circuit enabling replacement of defective memory elements and associated circuitry with non-defective spare elements of the RAM and associated circuitry, is scanned to enable replacement of a defective RAM element prior to repair of the RAM. A set of set/reset latches are coupled to receive the signal from the memory elements, and a multiplexer control circuit coupled to receive a shift signal and a ram_inhibit signal from a multiplexer to provide specific input signals to the multiplexer components. When a scan operation begins an active clock signal sets a set/reset latch to ram_inhibit mode and this blocks the memory elements from influencing the state of memory output latches, whereby when an memory operation begins, an active clocking signal will reset the set/reset latch into system mode to cause the multiplexers pass appropriate signals from the memory elements to the output latches, and the spare memory element is activated to replace a defective memory element.
