Nonvolatile random access memory including control circuit configured to receive commands at high and low edges of one clock cycle

Abstract

According to one embodiment, a memory includes a memory cell array with banks, each bank including rows, a first word lines provided in corresponding to the rows, an address latch circuit which latches a first row address signal, a row decoder which activates one of the first word lines, and a control circuit which is configured to execute a first operation which activates one of the banks based on a bank address signal when a first command is loaded, and a second operation which latches the first row address signal in the address latch circuit, and execute a third operation which activates one of the first word lines by the row decoder based on a second row address signal and the first row address signal latched in the address latch circuit when a second command is loaded after the first command.
