ABSTRACT:
A write driver circuit of a semiconductor memory to provide an unmuxed bit line scheme which reduces a height of an unmuxed Y-path so as to reduce an area of a chip in the memory. The write driver circuit can include an input latch circuit which latches input data, in response to an input enable signal; a first write driver which receives write data output from the input latch circuit, in response to a write enable signal, and outputs data to a bit line; and a second write driver which receives inverse data of the write data output from the input latch circuit, in response to the write enable signal, and outputs data to a complementary bit line, wherein the first and second write drivers have a NAND gate type structure and function as a write driver and a precharge driver.
