Multi-bank clock synchronous type semiconductor memory device having

Abstract

A rectangular semiconductor substrate region is divided into regions arranged in a plurality of rows and columns, and memory array blocks are provided to surround a central region. The plurality of memory array blocks are divided into a plurality of banks. Peripheral regions on both sides of the rectangular semiconductor substrate region are used as regions for providing sense amplifier power supply circuits, and circuits for generating a voltage to be transmitted onto word lines are provided at the four corner regions of the central region. Thus, a large storage capacity semiconductor memory device operating stably at a high speed and with reduced power consumption can be implemented.
