Abstract
A method of compiling a memory for layout by computation includes inputting memory specification, determining a disposition structure of input/output pads with reference to the memory specification, and creating a layout of the memory in accordance with the determined disposition structure of the input/output pads. A memory includes a plurality of memory banks, a plurality of row decoders and a plurality of input/output pads. Each of the plurality of row decoders is arranged between two memory banks adjacent to each other in a row direction. The plurality of row decoders are configured to selectively activate word lines based on row address signals input from an external source. Each row decoder receives row address signals altering a permutation in accordance with a size of the memory banks.
