Abstract
A semiconductor memory apparatus may include a memory bank, a global buffer array, and an input and output circuit. The memory bank includes a local data circuit, and the global buffer array includes a global data circuit. The local data circuit is operably coupled to the global data circuit. The global buffer array may be operably coupled to the input and output circuit. The memory bank is disposed in a core region, and the global buffer array and the input and output circuit may be disposed in a peripheral region separated from the core region.
