Abstract
A memory configuration includes a central connection area. The central connection area is surrounded annularly by cell arrays having memory cells. The memory configuration has compact external dimensions and is suitable, in particular, for a side ratio of 2:1. All the peripheral circuits are preferably disposed in the central connection area. As a result, the propagation time differences between the peripheral circuits and the various cell arrays are relatively small.
