ABSTRACT:
Address pointers (11, 12, 13, 14) include flip-flop circuits and flip-flop circuits including data through circuits. A control circuit (10) controls the flip-flop circuits such that the data through circuits of unnecessary flip-flop circuits cause data to pass through to prevent the flip-flop circuits from selecting unnecessary memory cells (7). The control circuit (10) generates control signals in selection signal producing means including fuses and the like and a decoding portion. Since the decoding portion decodes a flip-flop selection signal, the number of fuses is reduced. This achieves a semiconductor memory comprising address parts for memory cell selection and redundancy circuits which has a reduced area for provision of the fuses for providing redundancy to the semiconductor memory.
