ABSTRACT:
A semiconductor memory device is presented that exhibits an enhanced read/write data retrieval efficiency brought about in part by a uniquely shared column array communication scheme. The semiconductor memory device includes: at least one group of banks, the banks being disposed adjacent to each other to form a radially symmetrical arrangement of banks having a row and column geometry; and a column decoder array is positioned between pairs of vertically disposed banks in which the column decoder array communicates with this pair of vertically disposed banks so that a single column select signal from the column decoder array can be used to select a given memory cell of the one bank of this vertically disposed banks.
