Abstract

An integrated semiconductor memory device comprises: a receiver circuit for receiving a data signal, a receiver circuit for receiving a command signal, and a receiver circuit for receiving an address signal. A programmable storage unit comprises programmable elements. A current of the receiver circuits is controlled in dependence on a state of the programmable elements of the programmable storage unit. Depending on the application in which the integrated semiconductor memory device is used, the current of the receiver circuits is increased or decreased. By decreasing the current of the receiver circuits a dissipation loss of the integrated semiconductor memory device is reduced.
