## Background
BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
1. Field of the Invention
The present invention relates to semiconductor circuits, and in particular relates to a memory device and a driving circuit adopted by the memory device.
2. Description of the Related Art
As semiconductor technology advances, transistors sizes of semiconductor circuits are shrunk and a power supply voltage supplied to a semiconductor circuit is decreased. In semiconductor memories, large amounts of memory data are read and written frequently and in high speed, resulting in an escalated scale of power noises in power signals. Noises in a power supply to a semiconductor memory circuit will lead to decreased signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) and increased bit error rate (BER), both cause damages to circuit performance.
Therefore, a memory device and a driving circuit adopted by the memory device for reducing power noise in the power supply are required.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION
The following description is of the best-contemplated mode of carrying out the invention. This description is made for the purpose of illustrating the general principles of the invention and should not be taken in a limiting sense. The scope of the invention is best determined by reference to the appended claims.
As disclosed herein, memory devices may refer to Dynamic Random Access Memory (DRAM), Static DRAM (SDRAM), Electrically Erasable and Programmable ROM (EEPROM), NAND flash memory, NOR flash memory, Phase-change RAM (PRAM), Magnetic RAM (MRAM), and Ferroelectric RAM (FRAM), and resistive memory devices (ReRAMs).
FIG. 1 is a block diagram of a memory device 1 according to an embodiment of the invention, comprising an address buffer (ADB) 10, a data buffer (DATAB) 12, a word-line decoder 14, a bit-line decoder, sense amplifier, and write driver 16, and a memory cell array 18. The memory device 1 is formed on a silicon substrate, for example, using a complementary metal oxide semiconductor (CMOS) process. The memory device 1 may be a semiconductor memory housed in a package, and may be a memory macro (an intellectual property core (IP)) that is embedded in a system large scale integrated circuit (system LSI) or the like. The memory device 1 may be a non-clock-synchronized-type semiconductor memory or a clock-synchronized-type semiconductor memory.
In some embodiments, all circuits or all analog circuits of the memory device 1 are connected to a common external power source via common power and ground rails. For example, all circuits in the data buffer DATAB 12 and the address buffer ADB 10 are connected to a common power source Vext via a common power line vdd and ground line vss which can be modeled as inductors connected in series, as depicted in FIG. 2. As a consequence, when the circuits including active loads draw currents from the power source, the time varying currents create a power noise across the inductors.
Turning back to FIG. 1, the data buffer DATAB 12 drives data signals DATA[0 . . . 127] via a data bus and outputs the received data signals DATA[0 . . . 127] to and from the bit-line decoder, sense amplifier, and write driver 16, where the received data signals DATA[0 . . . 127] for reading and writing into a memory cell MC of the memory cell array 18. The address buffer ADB 10 receives address signals AD via an address bus, and outputs high order bits of the address signals AD, for example, a row address RAD to the word-line decoder 14 and high order bits of the address signals AD, for example, a column address CAD to the bit-line decoder, sense amplifier, and write driver 16. The word-line decoder 14 decodes the row address RAD and selects one of the word drivers to activate a corresponding word line WL from a low level, for example, a ground potential VSS, to a high level, for example, a power supply voltage VDD for a given period. The bit-line decoder, sense amplifier, and write driver 16 decodes the column address CAD and selects one of the write drivers to activate a corresponding bit line BL from a low level, for example, a ground potential VSS, to a high level, for example, a power supply voltage VDD for a given period.
Accordingly, the data buffer DATAB 12 contains 128-bit data lines and the address buffer ADB 10 contains 32-bit data lines. In order to reduce the power noise induced on the power and ground lines vdd and vss by 50 percent, data buffer circuits containing two or multiples of two data lines can adopt a specific order of driver types as shown in FIG. 3. That is, each data line of the data buffer DATAB 12 and the address buffer ADB 10 includes 4 driver groups with the specific order of the driver types in FIG. 3. The 4 driver groups are a driver group 1, a driver group 2, a driver group 3, and a driver group 4. Take the data buffer DATAB 12 as an example, each data line contains 4 driver groups formed by even-stage inverter drivers A or odd-stage inverter drivers B, where the even-stage inverter drivers A contains an even-number of inverters and the odd-stage inverter drivers B contains an odd-number of inverters. For example, the even-stage inverter driver A is formed by 2 inverters, and the odd-stage inverter driver A is formed by 3 inverters. An inverter is not limited to an inverter logic gate, but can be any type of inverting logic gate. The 128-bit data are divided into 4 data groups, namely Data[0 . . . 31], Data[32 . . . 63], Data[64 . . . 95], and Data[96 . . . 127] respectively. Each data group are coupled between the power and ground lines vdd and vss (not shown), and transmits data signals DATA via the data bus from 4 places of a memory chip.
The data group Data[0 . . . 31] contains 32 data lines, each data line contains 4 drivers arranged in an order of an even-stage inverter driver D00, an even-stage inverter driver D01, an odd-stage inverter driver D02, and an odd-stage inverter driver D03. The data group Data[32 . . . 63] contains 32 data lines, each data line contains 4 drivers arranged in an order of an odd-stage inverter driver D10, an even-stage inverter driver D11, an even-stage inverter driver D12, and an odd-stage inverter driver D13. The data group Data[64 . . . 95] contains 32 data lines, each data line contains 4 drivers arranged in the same order as in the data group Data[0 . . . 31], including an even-stage inverter driver D20, an even-stage inverter driver D21, an odd-stage inverter driver D22, and an odd-stage inverter driver D23. The data group Data[96 . . . 127] contains 32 data lines, each data line contains 4 drivers arranged in the same order as in the data group Data[32 . . . 63], including an odd-stage inverter driver D30, an even-stage inverter driver D31, an even-stage inverter driver D32, and an odd-stage inverter driver D33.
With the circuit arrangement in FIG. 3, the data buffer DATAB 12 can deliver data Data[0 . . . 127] between the data bus and the memory cell array while reducing the power noise on the power and ground lines. FIGS. 4 through 7 illustrate four embodiments in which the data buffer DATAB 12 reduces the power noise by 50% during data delivery.
Referring to FIG. 3 and Table 1 below, Table 1 shows output transients of inverter drivers D00 through D33 in a first embodiment, where a symbol (r) indicates that the output exhibits a rising transient and a symbol (f) indicates that the output exhibits a falling transient. For the data group Data[0 . . . 31], the even-stage inverter driver D00 receives rising transients and outputs rising transients, the even-stage inverter driver D01 receives rising transients and outputs rising transients, the odd-stage inverter driver D02 receives rising transients and outputs falling transients, and the odd-stage inverter driver D03 receives falling transients and outputs rising transients. For the data group Data[32 . . . 63], the odd-stage inverter driver D10 receives rising transients and outputs falling transients, the even-stage inverter driver D11 receives falling transients and outputs falling transients, the even-stage inverter driver D12 receives falling transients and outputs falling transients, and the odd-stage inverter driver D13 receives falling transients and outputs rising transients. For data group Data[64 . . . 95], the even-stage inverter driver D20 receives rising transients and outputs rising transients, the even-stage inverter driver D21 receives rising transients and outputs rising transients, the odd-stage inverter driver D22 receives rising transients and outputs falling transients, and the odd-stage inverter driver D23 receives falling transients and outputs rising transients. For the data group Data[96 . . . 127], the odd-stage inverter driver D30 receives rising transients and outputs falling transients, the even-stage inverter driver D31 receives falling transients and outputs falling transients, the even-stage inverter driver D32 receives falling transients and outputs falling transients, and the odd-stage inverter driver D33 receives falling transients and outputs rising transients.

Turning to FIG. 4, since the 4 data groups are connected to the power and ground lines, the net power noises on the power line vdd and the ground line vss are the combinations of all rising and falling transients of the 4 data groups Data[0 . . . 31], Data[32 . . . 63], Data[64 . . . 95], and Data[96 . . . 127] of the data buffer DATAB 12. As a result, for the driver group 1, the rising and the falling transients will be cancelled out, resulting in substantially no power noise on the power line vdd and the ground line vss; for the driver group 2, the rising and the falling transients will be cancelled out, resulting in substantially no power noise on the power line vdd and the ground line vss; for the driver group 3, all falling transients will be added up, inducing a net power noise with a positive voltage on the power line vdd and the ground line vss; for the driver group 4, all rising transients will be added up, inducing a net power noise with a negative voltage on the power line vdd and the ground line vss. In other words, with the circuit configuration in FIG. 3 and the embodiment in FIG. 4, when the data buffer DATAB 12 is in operation, the power noise only occurs at 50% of the time. In comparison to the conventional buffer circuit, the circuit arrangement in FIG. 3 results in a 50% power noise reduction.
Referring to FIG. 3 and Table 2 below, Table 2 shows output transients of inverter drivers D00 through D33 in a second embodiment, where a symbol (r) indicates that the output exhibits a rising transient and a symbol (f) indicates that the output exhibits a falling transient. For the data group Data[0 . . . 31], the even-stage inverter driver D00 receives falling transients and outputs falling transients, the even-stage inverter driver D01 receives falling transients and outputs falling transients, the odd-stage inverter driver D02 receives falling transients and outputs rising transients, and the odd-stage inverter driver D03 receives rising transients and outputs falling transients.

As a result, for the driver group 1, the rising and the falling transients will be cancelled out, resulting in substantially no power noise on the power line vdd and the ground line vss; for the driver group 2, the rising and the falling transients will be cancelled out, resulting in substantially no power noise on the power line vdd and the ground line vss; for the driver group 3, all rising transients will be added up, inducing a net power noise with a negative voltage on the power line vdd and the ground line vss; for the driver group 4, all falling transients will be added up, inducing a net power noise with a positive voltage on the power line vdd and the ground line vss.

Turning to FIG. 6, since the 4 data groups are connected to the power and ground lines, the net power noises on the power line vdd and the ground line vss are the combinations of all rising and falling transients of the 4 data groups Data[0 . . . 31], Data[32 . . . 63], Data[64 . . . 95], and Data[96 . . . 127] of the data buffer DATAB 12. As a result, for the driver group 1, all rising transients will be added up, inducing a net power noise with a negative voltage on the power line vdd and the ground line vss; for the driver group 2, all rising transients will be added up, inducing a net power noise with a negative voltage on the power line vdd and the ground line vss; for the driver group 3, the rising and the falling transients will be cancelled out, resulting in substantially no power noise on the power line vdd and the ground line vss; for the driver group 4, the rising and the falling transients will be cancelled out, resulting in substantially no power noise on the power line vdd and the ground line vss.
