ABSTRACT:
An integrated memory has row lines, column lines and column selection lines for activating read/write amplifiers. In each case, one group of a predetermined number of memory cells belongs to a row and a column address. Furthermore, the memory has a number of connecting pads corresponding to the predetermined number. Each memory cell in a group of memory cells is associated with one of the connecting pads. A control circuit for controlling the memory access is designed and can be operated such that, with a column address, it activates at least two different column selection lines. One of the column selection lines is activated for two or more column addresses. The delay times and the line lengths on the memory chip can thus be reduced in size.
