Abstract

Semiconductor memories are provided. The Semiconductor memory includes a plurality of sense amplifiers, plurality sets of master data line segments and a plurality of memory segments. The plurality sets of master data line segments are arranged in a column direction. Each memory segment includes a plurality of memory cells, and is coupled to a set of corresponding master data line segments via a corresponding sense amplifier. Adjacent sets of corresponding master data line segments are coupled together. When accessing memory data, the memory data are transferred by the adjacent sets of corresponding master data line segments which are coupled together.
