Semiconductor memory with reset function

摘要

A synchronous dynamic random access memory (SDRAM) integrated circuit (IC) configured to receive an external Reset signal for resetting the IC includes an input buffer configured to generate a buffered reset signal RST from the external Reset signal. The SDRAM IC further includes a reset circuit is configured to generate an internal reset signal Reset_En from (a) the RST signal, (b) a clock enable signal CKE which indicates a time when the SDRAM is ready to receive an external command, and (c) a mode register programming signal MRS_P which indicates a time when a mode register is to be loaded with data.
