Abstract
An input/output sense amplifier is configured to amplify data inputted through a pair of local transmission lines in response to a sense amplifier enable signal and a test mode signal, output the data through a global transmission line, generate a control signal by sensing whether the data have been amplified, and halt amplification of the data in response to the control signal when amplification is completed.
