Abstract
A semiconductor dynamic memory device is disclosed which contains circuitry for implementing both page mode and nibble modes using a conductor level selection. A clock voltage used in column decoding and output is either coupled to or decoupled from the column strobe or CAS input by conductor, so this clock voltage is rendered either dependent on, or independent of, the cycling of the column strobe.
