Semiconductor memory device employing sense amplifier control circuit and word line control circuit

摘要

A semiconductor memory device capable of reducing power consumption has a memory cell array, a plurality of address lines, a pair of data lines, an address transition detector circuit for outputting an address transition signal in response to a change in a signal on the address line, a sense amplifier, a sense amplifier control circuit for activating the sense amplifier in response to the address transition signal and deactivating the sense amplifier in response to the sense amplifier output signal, and a word line control circuit which deactivates the word lines within the memory cell array in response to the sense amplifier control circuit.
