According to an embodiment, a semiconductor memory device includes a first pin, a first receiving circuit, and a first terminating circuit. The first pin receives a first signal and a second signal having a smaller amplitude than the first signal. The first receiving circuit is connected to the first pin and outputs, based on a comparison between the first signal and a first voltage, a third signal. The first receiving circuit also outputs, based on a comparison between the second signal and a second voltage, a fourth signal having a smaller amplitude than the third signal. The first terminating circuit is connected to the first pin. The first terminating circuit is disabled if the first pin receives the first signal, and enabled if the first pin receives the second signal.

The master die may provide data from the master die and the data from the one or more slave die to a plurality of output terminals. Different ones of the output terminals may provide data from a different die of the stacked memory. In some examples, the data may be retrieved from the multiple die concurrently.

Apparatuses and methods for writing data to a memory array are disclosed. When data is duplicative across multiple data lines, data may be transferred across a single line of a bus rather than driving the duplicative data across all of the data lines. The data from the single data line may be provided to the write amplifiers of the additional data lines to provide the data from all of the data lines to be written to the memory. In some examples, error correction may be performed on data from the single data line rather than all of the data lines.

A memory device includes: first power pins in a first power area and configured to receive a first power voltage; data pins configured to transmit or receive data signals, the data pins being arranged in a first region and in a second region each including the first power area; control pins configured to transmit or receive control signals in the first region and in the second region; second power pins in a second power area between the first region and the second region and configured to receive a second power voltage different from the first power voltage; and ground pins in the second power area and configured to receive a ground voltage.

A memory circuit for a print component including a plurality of I/O pads, including an analog pad, to connect to a plurality of signal paths which communicate operating signals to the print component. The memory circuit includes a controllable selector connected in line with one of the signal paths via the I/O pads, the selector controllable to disconnect the corresponding signal path to the print component, and a memory component to store memory values associated with the print component. A control circuit, in response to a sequence of operating signals received by the I/O pads representing a memory read, to operate the controllable selector to disconnect the signal path to the print component to block the memory read of the print component, and provide an analog signal to the analog pad to provide an analog electrical value at the analog pad representing stored memory values selected by the memory read.

According to one embodiment, a semiconductor device includes receiving terminals on a surface of a substrate to receive first signals and transmitting terminals on the surface of the substrate to transmit second signals. The transmitting terminals are symmetrically positioned on the surface of the substrate with respect to the receiving terminals at a substantially 90 degree rotation about a rotation center position. The ordering of the transmitting terminals along the surface of the substrate from the rotation center position matches the ordering of the receiving terminals along the surface of the substrate from the rotation center position.
