ABSTRACT:
An address generator generates a binary coded address signal consisting of a combination of bit-representative low swing complementary signals. The coded address signal is decoded by an address decoder in a concurrently amplifying manner to obtain a decoded address signal consisting of a combination of symbol-representative full swing signal pairs of logical signals. The decoder comprises a binary tree of sense amplifiers each serving for outputting a logical product of an input enable signal and a corresponding low swing complementary signal, so that a single logical signal has a high level at the output end of the decoder. The high level logical signal is employed to drive a word line for an access to an arbitrary location defined in a given memory or to a desired piece of data stored therein, at an address represented by the decoded address signal.
