Semiconductor memory device including redundant memory cell array for repairing defect

摘要

An SRAM disclosed herein includes 64 memory cell array blocks and a redundant memory cell array block. The redundant memory cell array includes a total of 16 redundant memory cell columns. A defect address indicating a location of a defective memory column is programmed in an address programming circuit, and the specific defecting column in the defect address is programmed in an I/O programming circuit. Although each memory cell does not include a spare memory cell column or row for redundancy, the defect can be repaired by using a redundant memory cell array, so that the high integration of the SRAM can be accomplished.
