ABSTRACT:
An address transition detecting circuit detects on address transition signal generated during the writing of input data into a static random access memory (SRAM) and generates an address detection signal as a monostable pulse of a predetermined length. A bit line precharge and equalize signals generating circuit generates, in synchronization with the address transition detection signal and an input signal on a write data line, a bit line precharge signal and bit line equalize signal which are supplied to their columns in memory. At a time of reading, the bit line precharge and equalize signals generating circuit supplies a high level potential to paired data lines to prevent a data entry from being made into the paired write data lines by a resetting operation. At a time of writing, a write data buffer circuit supplies complementary data to the paired write data lines and prevents a data signal entry from being made by a presetting operation onto the paired write data lines, for a predetermined period of time, in synchronization with the address transition detection signal. It is, therefore, possible to prevent an input signal entry for a predetermined period of time by a resetting operation and hence prevent a write error.
