Abstract
A multi-port memory device includes a plurality ports, a plurality of banks, a plurality of global data buses, first and second I/O controllers, and a test input/output (I/O) controller. The ports perform a serial I/O data transmission. The banks perform a parallel I/O data transmission with the ports. The global data buses are employed for transmitting data between the ports and the banks. The first I/O controller controls a serial data transmission between the ports and external devices. The second I/O controller controls a parallel data transmission between the ports and the global buses. The test I/O controller generates test commands based on a test command/address (C/A) inputted from the external devices and transmits a test I/O data with the global data bus during a test operation mode.
