Method for arranging a memory cell array in semiconductor memory device

摘要

A method of arranging a memory cell array in a semiconductor memory device, comprising the steps of dividing the memory cell array into a plurality of memory cell array areas having equal size, providing within the memory cell array a plurality of sub-normal memory cell arrays and at least one redundant memory cell array, arranging the plurality of sub-normal memory cell arrays and the at least one redundant memory cell array into the plurality of memory cell array areas, and arranging a plurality of sub-normal word line drivers, such that each sub-normal word line driver is adjacent to one of the plurality of memory cell array areas.
