Problems solved by technology

As a result, even if the fuse is in the cut state, there will be such a problem that an address corresponding to the non-cut state of the fuse will be generated due to erroneous data latching of the fuse cut information.

Abstract

An address generation circuit, comprising: a first switch transistor, a second switch transistor, a fuse unit, a power-on reset circuit, and outputs a first reset signal for controlling the on / off state of the first switch transistor and a first reset signal for controlling the first switch transistor. A second reset signal for the on / off state of the two switching transistors. The address generating circuit further includes a latch circuit for latching and outputting a predetermined potential corresponding to the cut-off or non-cut state of the fuse element. The first reset signal turns on the first switch transistor in a first period immediately after the power is turned on, and keeps the first switch transistor in an off state after the first period ends. In addition, the second reset signal turns on the second switching transistor during at least a second period after the first period, and keeps the second switching transistor always in an off state after the second period ends.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to a kind of address generating circuit, especially a kind of redundant address generating circuit, is used for storing the address (hereinafter referred to as redundant address) of the damaged storage unit in a RAM (random access memory) storage unit array and in RAM A redundant address is generated when the power of the device is turned on. Background technique [0002] For example, 1(a) and 1(b) are schematic diagrams of traditional address generating circuits. [0003] FIG. 1(a) is a circuit diagram illustrating a conventional address generation circuit. In this figure, 41 is a first switching transistor including a PMOS transistor, 42 is a fuse element, 43 is a latch circuit, 44 is an inverter and 45 is a power-on reset circuit. [0004] In the conventional address generating circuit shown in FIG. 1(a), the first switching transistor 41 and the fuse element 42 are in the DD and ground V SS sequentially connected i...
