Abstract
y memory blocks are connected in series. A row select signal is output to each memory block from a row address pointer corresponding to a plurality of memory circuits in one memory block. Similarly, a column select signal is output to each memory block from a column address pointer corresponding to a plurality of memory circuits in one memory block. Therefore, the same row and column select signals are applied to each memory block, whereby data is sequentially input/output for every memory block. Thus, the circuit complexity of the row and column address pointers can be reduced.
