ABSTRACT:
A pseudo static RAM includes an array of dynamic memory cells and peripheral circuits such as precharge transistors, a row decoder and sense amplifiers. Address change detecting circuits detect address signal change. A pulse generator supplies a pulse signal to a timing generator and a busy signal generator in response to the address signal change. The timing generator generates various timing signals for driving the peripheral circuits. When a subsequent address signal change is detected during operation of a dynamic RAM, a flag circuit generates a flag signal in response to a subsequent pulse signal from the pulse generator and a busy signal from the busy signal generator. Thus, the signal commanding such subsequent operation of the pseudo static RAM is stored in the form of a flag signal until the first operation is completed. Upon completion of first operation of the dynamic RAM, subsequent operation is started on the basis of the flag signal.
