Abstract
Disclosed herein is a semiconductor memory device using a pre-fetch method and a semiconductor system including the same. The semiconductor memory device may include a memory bank having an odd-numbered array region suitable for inputting/outputting data through N first local lines in response to an odd-numbered column address, and an even-numbered array region suitable for inputting/outputting data through N second local lines in response to an even-numbered column address, N being a positive integer, a column address generation unit suitable for consecutively generating the odd-numbered column address and the even-numbered column address whose generation sequence is controlled depending on whether an external column address has an even-numbered value or an odd-numbered value, and N global lines coupled in common to the N first local lines and the N second local lines, suitable for inputting/outputting data.
