Abstract

The invention provides a resistance value measurement circuit device and method for a semiconductor memory. The measurement circuit device comprises a first calibrated unit connected between a first voltage interface and a first reading interface, a first protection unit connected between a second voltage interface and the first reading interface, and a first measurement switch transistor connected between a first connection point and a second reading interface, wherein the first connection point is formed between the first calibrated unit and the first voltage interface; the first voltage interface and the second voltage interface are used for providing a voltage difference, so that a current passes through the first calibrated unit and the first protection unit; and when the first measurement switch transistor is in a conducting state, a resistance value of the first calibrated unit is obtained by measuring the voltages of the first reading interface and the second reading interfaceand the current of the first calibrated unit, so that the influence of contact resistance can be avoided and a resistance value of an internal resistor of a data interface of the semiconductor memorycan be accurately measured.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of semiconductor integrated circuits, in particular to a resistance measuring circuit device and a resistance measuring method of a semiconductor memory. Background technique [0002] Memory (Memory) is a memory device used to store information in modern information technology, such as Dynamic Random Access Memory (Dynamic Random Access Memory, DRAM for short). The read port of DRAM is designed to control the high or low potential of the read port and the amount of current it consumes through a resistor. Therefore, the resistance value of the resistor needs to be within a fixed specification, but due to the manufacturing process It will cause the resistance value of the manufactured resistors to be non-uniform, so it needs to be corrected by measuring with a testing machine. [0003] Such as figure 1 Shown is the measurement circuit 100 of the resistance value of the reading port of the prior art DRAM, inc...
