Abstract(in English) This paper proposes a new circuit design architecture whitch is effective for low power, and high speed DRAMs. The characteristics of this schemes are: 1) a fsih bone layout of the sub-decode-line in the divided word line (DWL) architecture, 2) a hierachicalbit line (BL) precharge power line and and 3) a non-reset row block control. A 256Mb DRAM using these techniques was fabricated by a 0.25um CMOS process. An extremely low standby current (23uA) and self refresh current (607uA) were obtained.
