Abstract(in English) This paper describes a DRAM Module Generator with an expandable cell array scheme. This approach uses the cell array segment as the unit of increment and applies shared sense amplifier scheme.This approach has enabled us to construct DRAM macros with a wide variety of configurations and reduce layout area of DRAM macros.Using a 0.35μm process technology, a series of DRAM macros with 2112 derivatives has been developed.The macro size using this approach is 17.2% smaller than that of the conventional scheme for a capacity of 32Mbit.The module generator has successfully generated a number of macros, taking five seconds for each macro, including a 32Mbit macro with a 150MHz cycle time.
