Abstract
A content addressable memory device includes a first match line which is a first one of two portions into which a whole match line corresponding to a single item of entry data is divided, and changes from a first potential to a second potential when corresponding entry data does not match an entry key, a second match line which is a second one of the two portions into which the whole match line corresponding to the single item of entry data is divided, and changes from a second potential to a first potential when corresponding entry data does not match an entry key, a first precharge circuit which precharges the first match line to the first potential, a second precharge circuit which precharges the second match line to the second potential, and a short-circuiting circuit which short-circuits the first match line and the second match line with each other prior to precharging by the first and second precharge circuits if both of the first and second match lines indicate a mismatch.
