Title:
MODE REGISTER SET CIRCUIT OF SEMICONDUCTOR DEVICE AND METHOD OF SETTING OPERATION MODE
Document Type and Number:
Japanese Patent JP3820559
Kind Code:
B2
Abstract:

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a mode register set circuit of a semiconductor device which requires preparing no additional control signal.
SOLUTION: An address signal level sensing part 201 receives an input signal Ai showing information on mode setting, and outputs a level sensing signal Ai' only when the voltage level of the input signal Ai is higher than the voltage level at the time of normal operation by a predetermined level. A power source voltage sensing part 203 outputs power source voltage sensing signal VCCHB activated when the power source voltage Vcc is not higher than a predetermined level. A logic gate 205 responds to the power source voltage sensing signal VCCHB and the level sensing signal Ai' and generates a mode signal PMODEi'. A latch part 207 latches the mode signal PMODEi' and outputs the reverse signal as a mode signal PMODEi.
