Abstract
An integrated semiconductor memory capable of determining a chip temperature includes first control terminals for driving the integrated semiconductor memory with first control signals for performing a write access and second control terminals provided for performing a read access. The integrated semiconductor further includes a control circuit for controlling a write and read access. A temperature sensor for recording a chip temperature of the integrated semiconductor memory is connected to the control circuit. The control circuit is configured to generate a state of a third control signal at one of the first or at one of the second control terminals in a manner dependent on a temperature recorded by the temperature sensor.
