read out of the memory cell array are transferred to the data line
buffers via the main data line pairs in parallel, and while head
data of the plurality of bits of data pass through the latch circuits
to be transferred to one of the peripheral data lines, a plurality

which the head data have been transferred. Thus, it is possible
to decrease the number of peripheral data lines to reduce the chip
size of an SDRAM while adopting a pre-fetch system for accelerating

Title: Low error, switchable measurement lead detect circuit
Inventor: ZOELLICK RAYMOND D
IPC: G01R15/12
Filed: 2000-02-11
Abstract: A low error, switchable measurement lead detect circuit (9) for providing accurate current measurement readings and reducing susceptibility to false measurement lead detections dues to leakage current is described. A gate (14) that receives an input select voltage Vs selectively connects either a supply voltage, Vd, or ground to the input of a voltage divider (13). Vd is connected during a measurement lead detection mode of operation or open fuse detection mode of operation, and a ground is connected during a current measurement mode of operation. During the measurement lead detection mode of operation, if the pin of a measurement lead is present in a split jack (12), the voltage divider (13) divides the supply voltage, Vd. During open fuse detection mode of operation, a measurement lead is present in the spit jack (12), and if a fuse (F1) is present, the voltage divider divides the supply voltage, Vd. During the current measurement mode of operation, the voltage divider (13) and shunt (11) form a series parallel circuit when a measurement lead pin is located in the split jack (12). The impedance of the shunt (11) is negligible in comparison to the impedance of the voltage divider (13), and the voltage drop across shunt (11) is proportional to the injected current. Because the voltage divider (13) is grounded through the gate (14) during the current measurement mode of operation, no error current from supply voltage, Vd, passes through the shunt (11). As a result, the accuracy of current measurement readings made during the current measurement mode of operation is improved. Because the supply voltage does not produce an error current during the measurement mode of operation, the overall impedance of the voltage divider (13) can be reduced to reduce susceptibility to leakage current during the measurement lead detection mode of operation.
