Semiconductor devices
A semiconductor device includes a control signal generation circuit and an input/output (I/O) control circuit. The control signal generation circuit generates first and second read control signals and first and second write control signals. One of the first and second read control signals and one of the first and second write control signals is selectively enabled according to a combination of first and second addresses for selecting a first I/O line or a second I/O line. The I/O control circuit outputs read data loaded on first and second internal I/O lines through any one of the first and second I/O lines in response to the first and second read control signals. In addition, the I/O control circuit outputs input data through any one of the first and second I/O lines in response to the first and second write control signals.
SEMICONDUCTOR MEMORY DEVICES, METHODS OF OPERATING SEMICONDUCTOR MEMORY DEVICES AND MEMORY SYSTEMS
A semiconductor memory device includes bank arrays, row decoders, column decoders, a timing control circuit and repeaters. The bank arrays are distributed in a core region of a substrate, and each bank array includes sub-array blocks and includes a plurality of memory cells coupled to a plurality of word-lines and a plurality of bit-lines. Each row decoder is disposed adjacent each bank array in a first direction. Each column decoder is disposed adjacent each bank array in a second direction. The timing control circuit, which is disposed in a peripheral region of the substrate, generates a first control signal to control the word-lines and a second control signal to control the bit-lines in response to operation control signals. Each repeater is disposed adjacent each column decoder and each repeater transfers the first and second control signals to the sub-array blocks in the second direction.
