Abstract
There is provided a semiconductor memory device which includes a plurality of memory cell blocks arranged in rows and columns. Each memory cell block includes a plurality of memory cells for storing data. A plurality of data input/output circuits are divided into a first group and a second group. The first group and the second group are associated with and disposed between a respective subset of the memory cell blocks. The data input/output circuits have a plurality of data input/output pins. A plurality of address signal circuits are arranged between the first group and the second group for receiving externally applied address signals. The semiconductor memory device is packed using a Non-Outer-DQ-Inner-Control (NON-ODIC) type package having a structure such that the data input/output pins of the data input/output circuits of the first and second groups are collectively arranged adjacent to each other.
