Serial accessed semiconductor memory.

摘要

In a semiconductor memory a plurality of memory arrays is provided each having an equal number of memory elements arranged in rows and columns. Common decode means receive a row address and a column address and select one of the memory elements in each said arrays responsive to said row address and to said column address. Each of said selected memory elements has a common row and column location. Input/output means associated with each of said arrays transfer data to said selected memory elements or extract data from said selected memory elements. Inhibiting means are provided for inhibiting transfer of data to selected ones of said arrays and subsequent storage in the associated one of said selected memory elements such that data is not transferred to said selected memory elements associated with the inhibited ones of said arrays by said output means. <IMAGE>
