ABSTRACT:
A synchronous dynamic random access memory has spare columns which can be tested before shipping. In the memory, a mode set register outputs a multibank write signal in the test mode. A CBS latch circuit generates not only a signal for selecting the spare column decoders in banks and in the test mode but also signals for selecting the column decoders. Write driving circuits write the data onto the column lines selected by the column decoders and onto the spare column lines selected by the spare column decoders.
