ABSTRACT:
A MISFET dynamic random access memory chip having 4,096 single transistor, single capacitor storage cells yet packaged in a standard sixteen pin dual inline package is disclosed. Six bit row address and six bit column address data are sequentially multiplexed into row address latches and column address latches through six address pins by sequentially occurring row address and column address strobes. Sixty-four bits of information from an address row are read and transferred to a sixty-four bit column register. One bit of the column register is then selected by the column address decoder so that data is transferred from that bit to a data output latch. Data is transferred into a data input latch and then to the addressed bit of the storage matrix as well as to the addressed column register by a write signal. Upon completion of the row address strobe cycle, each cell in the address row is automatically refreshed by the data in the respective bit of the column register, including the bit which may have been modified by a write cycle. The state of the data output latch remains valid until a subsequent column address strobe is received. The write signal to the chip provides for a read only or a write only cycle, in addition to the read-modify-write cycle. In the absence of a chip select, the data output assumes an open circuit condition. The sense amp utilizes a dynamic differential amplifier to sense a voltage change of a precharged column bus. The entire system is substantially entirely dynamic in operation and accordingly has very low power consumption.
